You sell the 2 cows and head to the bank to pay your son’s school fees. At the entrance of the bank armed robbers strike and collect all the money. You return home empty handed but happy to be alive. You give the testimony in church the next Sunday.

MY OWN UPDATE:

New Western Capitalism; You go all around the world robbing other nations, killing their good leaders and imposing your stooges.  You collect the wealth of Asia, Middle East, and Africa, but a few of your super-rich people (bankers, weapons dealers etc)  sit on all the money, impoverishing even their own people.  Then you announce that you are broke all the same, and go on another round of expedition, toppling governments around the world, causing wars and crying that the Africans are unnecessarily increasing world population.

New Western Democracy; You give your people the impression that they need to be ‘free’.  They stupidly believe that they are not free, forgetting that freedom is in the head.  You then get your banks to grant your people different types of loans from which they will never be free!  They take house loans, car loans, consumer loans.  You then input fear in their hearts that things will go wrong and that they need insurance.  They then overinsure everything they have such that they become broke all the same.  You sell democracy as the twin brother of capitalism, you ignite people’s greed.  They think they are free, but they are more mistaken than ever.  They are entrapped in reality shows, television, cinema, Hollywood, and sports like Soccer and Basketball.  They spend their hard-earned meager income, and their active lives, ‘supporting’ their clubs.  By the time they realize their mistakes, their lives are gone!  And they die as ‘Les Miserables’…  You then package this crazy system, and sell it to Africa so that you can continue to milk the continent and its people, who keep trooping to your country, to be insulted, and to do the most undignified of the jobs!

Chinese Capitalism; You shut in your system, undergo a cultural revolution, dictate the number of children your citizens can have, get them to be productive and teachable, while restricting their greed, and Kaboom!  The world realizes that you just swindled them in the game of capitalism and globalization!  Nine million bicycles disappear from Beijing to be replaced by Rolls Royces.  You then go around the world, especially to Africa, to obtain more raw materials to further feed your industrial development.  Poor Africans!

Nigerian Capitalism; You run your system without plans.  You hope that the future will be bright simply based on superstitions.  You breed comedians, footballers and musicians and your young citizens become layabouts, yet you claim that your future will be bright.  You end up with an unwieldy government of charlatans, who spend all your resources aggrandizing themselves at the expense of your citizens.  You watch as your best leaders are killed off by foreigners.  Your so-called heroes are those who have sold off your patrimony to foreigners.  Your highest echelon in government is occupied by agents of foreign secret organizations, yet you wonder why things are not working.  You push all these problems aside, throw another large party, remove fuel subsidy and budget a mere N1billion to feed your president and his deputy!

Merry Xmas!
