Buying Toilet Paper in Zimbabwe


Comrade Fatso, Global Voices

Comrade Fatso on the situation in Zimbabwe: "The parallel realities we live in
have become the only reality now. The other one is paralyzed. So bread is now
hustled on street corners for two US dollars. Like an illegal drug. Milk has
also joined the list of 'goods' that are sold in our parallel economy. Not in
the shops but on the streets. And if you're looking for toilet paper then just
drive to the nearest 'Give Way' sign, a Zimbabwean 'Stop' sign."

What an interesting young man this is. Bread and milk may become like an illegal drug here... they're both becoming exorbitantly ridiculously expensive for a family with children...
