Every impoverished country out there likely has its politics to blame -- blunders by their executive and legislative branches of government may have the severest of effects on a small, less-than-developed economy, as the public sector is often proportionately very large compared to the private in such a place. Not always the case, but when it is there's trouble waiting to happen.

The real, proven way out is to do the Milton Friedman: political liberty hand in hand with economic liberty.
