South Africa’s biggest forum. Discuss, discover, and connect with thousands of members.
You are ridiculed because you don't understand economics and the principals of a free market which our country claims to be. And for making comments like half of white people support the FF+ etc. You only bring it upon yourself educate yourself as much as you can to understand the other view points and then make up your own mind dont blindly follow someone elses opinion.
Let's think about it. The whites in SA do not support the ANC. Half support the DA and the other half are FF+. Now, how can the ANC or any African government for that matter, run a country without the support of the people which own the most? I have over reacted in my first post but it makes my blood boil if I see how ignorant some forumites are. I don't mind if people laugh and ridicule me. I got used to that in here. But don't keep on attacking the blacks under the ANC banner. And some of you do just that at each and every opportunity.

Well there is some truth to what Gwede is saying...
There are a number of socialists who are pulling the strings in the background. These include people like D. Forslund and Brian Ashley. Forslund is a swedish socialist. Even AMCU's lawyer is a British socialist. This same lawyer has even addressed striking miners at mass meetings... One of the British socialist parties is even donating blankets etc. to the striking miners. Funny how they tell whites to go back to Europe when white socialist Europeans are actually working behind the scenes.
Interesting fact - During the mediation with the labour court judge, AMCU agreed to take an offer to their members. Two days later they then told the judge they "thought" about it and decided against discussing the offer with their members. This was after discussions with their socialist economists...
If not for these guys an offer would have been signed a month ago. They are nobodies in their own countries, but then they come to South Africa to become "revolutionaries"...
This strike is not about R12500...
