Very neat. We can sweep the real problems under the rug until the next spark rips SA to shreds. Neat indeed.
The real problem is obviously the ANC and the people like their struggle and don't want to give it up, but at the same time blame others for their problems.

What is needed is another Marikana

Well this has been an eventful day....first time ever that i have various out of towners and locals in my office at different times of the day....and ALL of them brought up the situation in SA.... a lot of them think SA has past the point on no return and a war of sorts is now inevitable....
I never thought I would hear folk say such things about SA...

The turning point was the firing of the finance minister, Nhlanhla Nene in 2015, since then we've seen nothing but skeletons falling out of every closet imaginable and at an increasing rate as of late.

The issue is with all the government looting, BEE thieving, mismanagement, riots etc... The only thing that's changing is the policies are becoming more socialist, which has been the driving factor in South Africa's inability to redress anything. People want more for less and there is no money left.

The ANC on the other hand are falling over themselves to implement completely unaffordable things like the NHI and then still Nationalizing the reserve bank. Not because it's going to help the people in any way imaginable.

The coming destruction of the middle class is almost inevitable and while there is a chance things will get better, a lot of people are not waiting around to find out.

How many centuries will pass before they realise it is the ANC/EFF and trade unions they have to thank for their plight. Meanwhile Ethiopia continues privatising with economic growth above 10%.

Fantastic opportunity to build a business and have it burnt to the ground. Why are investors not flocking? Oh well the state could always build a state owned looting opportunity.
