ian smith was thinking about running again for prime minister.nd i went to his home on the outskirts of the town, and we spoke for about two hours. we only agreed to an hour but he had just been widowed, and much like friedman, this man, i remember about reading about him when i was a child and how he always seemed this figure and he was actually genteel and sort of blunt spoken insincere. but we were talking, and i asked him basically why he wanted to run for political office again. he said because when i was the prime minister of this country, our blacks were the happiest in the world. and this of course this was the connection between the globalization and colonialization. they were speaking for the constituency, both friedman and ian smith. they were speaking. they didn't see any breaks. they did want to. for their people, of course, the economy was great. of course zimbabwe was great. they were serving sort of their clientele and, you know, if you're getting free labor or cheap labor from indigenous africans, things can work well for you. is
