can do to a country.

Once the breadbasket of southern Africa, Zimbabwe now needs to import maize. The U.N. agricultural production index for Zimbabwe fell from nearly 107 in 2000 to just over 74 in 2005.

Exports of goods and services as a percentage of GDP averaged 33.5 percent in 1997-2001. UBS forecast this would decline to 9.9 percent in 2007

Lets all hope that the citizens of Zimbabwe vote out the current socialist Mugabe, err, I mean that this magical variable that has ruined the country will leave shortly.
