Was thinking of going there for a vacation and hopefully come across a couple hundred carat diamond. Until the article stated AIDS and poverty is rampant.

Guess I'll stay in this poverty striken state and go to Murpheesboro.

If so much money is made from these diamonds, who is getting it all and why aren't they forced to give some thing back to the very poor workers?
