  Where is the oil money may I ask? For the first time in the history of our nation we have extra money coming from crude oil but this is the worse time economically, why?
  We still have our cocoa, gold and those commodities we used to depend on plus oil, so what happened?

  Ghana needs manufacturers and exporters and not traders. A country does not develop on buying and selling. Leave Makola and go and do something meaningful than importing and selling. Does importing and selling create jobs or help the economy. This buying and selling mentality in Ghana is what is destroying the economy and Ghana as a whole. We as Ghanaians do not want to think. We do not want to produce. All we know is to buy what others have produce and sell. Government should impose more taxes on those imported items which can be produced locally.

  This stupid people calling themselves traders should just give us a break. Buying and selling is not a profession and nothing to be proud of. Just exchanging money and importing rice, nails, match boxes, used clothen, shoes and even underwears is not a thinking business and nothing to be proud of. Government should rather increase duty on these containers. If we wish to develop, then we have to produce for our local market and export the rest. We have to use the brains God has given. People who do not want to use their, who do not want to think do buying and selling. Buying and selling is just BOGUS.
