The economy was always shyt under Barre - Abdiweli Gaas worked in the Ministry of Finance in the mid 80s - he told me Somalia's economy had already crashed well before 91

84 was the economic collapse.

It was the trigger for the civil war to emerge from.

Somalis are ungrateful lot. Give a whole generation free education and food. And their kids calacaal about us 24/7. All the so called Somali elites were brought up by Siad Barre. Thank God my generation of MX are selfish. 30 years you couldn't repeat the successes of the Kacaan. Shows that Barre was a rare breed. Niggas still use his roads and ports. Ungrateful SOBs
