Economy first, politics later

Some people never get enough of the swim in the slumbers of shame. Morgan Tsvangirai's sentiments of cheap beer during the Rhodesian era, reflects of a disoriented would be leader. What he puts first in his life is just but too foolish and uncharismatic.
When the economy is ailing and screaming, one would think Tsvangirai would mention something about sanction bursting by the Rhodesians under the leadership of Ian Douglas Smith. It is amazing how he confesses of his switch from beer binging to open zip shut mind hobby.
Better he did not divulge the prices of thigh vendors back then.
The ongoing province trotting by the ex premier should be punctuated by the need to have the sanctions lifted if it is all about delivering to the people. However, Tsvangirai is on a prophetic mission chanting the "elections are close by" mantra which is equally misdirected and unyielding to the general populace anyhow.
Zimbabweans are an educated nation and it is not like they live to vote or for an election. Before any effort can be made politically lets resuscitate the economy. Please Morgan we are so done of your misgivings. ZANU PF won resoundingly because they promised jobs which you stealthily wiped away.
It then makes sense to talk of politics in an economical way than repeating the chorus of votes and elections. Could this be a case of God's wisdom disserting our leaders or a scenario where human life is drastically losing value.
