The basis of this article stems from the first one in the series: “Common Sense Economics for Liberia”. Liberia will NOT develop if we continue to naively believe that transformation will happen through the efforts of those least prepared to do so! There is nothing that harms Liberia more than the lack of law enforcement and institutional protection of certain powerful individuals. Understand that Liberia does not have a corruption problem; it has a lack of systems and law enforcement problem! Prevention is far way more effective than chasing ghosts who are protected by our current “ghost judiciary”, something that must be changed if Liberia is to have a fighting chance.
