It is not clear to me why IMF policy is called "free trade." (http://www.pambazuka.org/en/category/features/34800) The IMF is an agency of governments. It is not an organization of private enterprise. If IMF policies are bad, why did the government of Kenya agree to the conditions? The government of Kenya should be blamed for causing poverty and borrowing from the IMF and agreeing to IMF policy. There is no free market or free trade in Kenya. If Kenya had true free trade, there would be no need for the government to borrow money. Private investment would employ people at good wages, and extirpate poverty. Hong Kong is a good example.
