What country in the world is in the worst situation right now (in your opinion)?

I might go with Chad.

North Korea and Zimbabwe are obvious candidates. There's also Moldova, which is wretchedly poor.

Britain has a worse current account deficit as a proportion of GDP than Zimbabwe. Thought that would cheer you up.

Don't hold your breath though - if GWB doesnt get his funding, US will be in a bit of a pickle. I believe America is paying back £2million dollars per day in interest.

Agree with Bloomsby regarding Moldova - desperately poor.
