It's one thing to allow investment, it's another to allow foreigners to own everything. To your last point, I'm glad to see history not repeating itself in Zimbabwe as it happened in America since 1492.
The drought began in the early 1980s... and many white farmers simply left.. The IMF got involved and they couldn't repay their loans.. Read Robert Hitchcock.. He's very left wing but he spent 30 year in Zimbabwe.
