Cut prices or go to jail...


"Nearly 5,000 store owners, managers and business executives have been arrested since the [Zimbabwean] government began its campaign to slash prices last month...The government ordered that prices be slashed by around 50 percent to curb inflation, officially at 4,500 percent but estimated to be twice as high."
