Well went back to vote. Most people there were in wheel chairs and probably more than double my age!

The DA difference
Sliding into sewerage builds character. The DA is developing Elon Musks of the future who will write about sewerage slides in their memoirs and how it motivated them to build interplanetary societies.
Thanks DA

How difficult was it to find the DA on the ballots?

Why was Rwanda also kicked out of agoa? SA was expected.

Not too hard but the ward ballot is done by the councillor's name, NOT by party.

Trump terminates South Africa from AGOA
The African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), which grants eligible sub-Saharan African countries preferential access to the US market, has been renewed until the end of 2028, but is reviewed annually.www.enca.com
Washington has been increasing economic pressure on Rwanda over its alleged backing of the armed M23 rebel group in neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo.

That speaks to targeted sanctions. I would have been fine with that. What does that have to do with AGOA, which hits employers more than politicians? If the US wanted to make their point about their asks that weren't addressed, they punished the wrong people...

Honestly. I did not expect this to actually happen. I know there was talk of it last year.
How big of a problem is this?
