And also thanks to African governments who have refused to invest in HIV medication. There is absolutely no reason why nearly 30 years later African governments are not equipped to deal with HIV.

The African student who memorizes Western economic theory is not receiving a neutral education.
They are being taught to see their continent through the eyes of the people who designed its current arrangements.
They will learn about comparative advantage, the theory that says each country should specialize in what it produces most efficiently.
In practice, for many African countries, this means: keep producing raw materials, because that is your comparative advantage.
Do not process them.
Do not manufacture.
Do not climb the value chain.
Export the cocoa bean. Import the chocolate.
Export the cotton. Import the shirt.
Export the bauxite. Import the aluminum.
This is called efficiency.
What it is, actually, is a permanent assignment of African economies to the bottom of every value chain, guaranteed by a theory that presents this arrangement as the natural outcome of rational markets rather than as the result of deliberate historical policy, colonial infrastructure investment, and trade rules written by the people at the top.
But the student learns the theory before they learn the history.
The theory makes the history invisible.
That is the function of the curriculum.

Your politicians will sell your resources out to Australians.
Australians will use it to develop their land. You'll now go to their embassy and beg for visa.
They'll give you.
You'll now leave all your family and friends in squalor and go to labour for their economy.

Trump asked Germany for help. They asked him what 5 plus 4 is. He said 9. The Germans said exactly.
