1) Stats SA could at least get https on their site. :mad:

2) This report shows exactly why inequality is a stupid measure. There are two ways of decreasing it, making the poor rich, or the rich poor.

With white people the latter reason is why inequality is "better", whilst black people's inequality is worse
741625


Nevertheless, this report also shows what the problem is in this country:
741637

As I said so earlier in this thread, just getting people to finish high school, and finishing it well would drastically make a massive difference in the poverty in this country.

Why black Africans, and not just blacks? Blacks, whites and Indians.
Or did income inequality in South Africa improve for the black Europeans?

It is a thing even though steps have been taken to correct things, SOEs are mostly the culprits in this regard, I think we all understand why.
Telkom admitted to it not too long ago and even signed an agreement with organised labour to correct the disparities.
It is a thing in Private sector as well. If only accountants will leak this information.

and there it is... attacking all minorities for a problem that's clearly the fault of Government.
Classic communist move... Look at those guy's, they're the reason you're poor, go after them while I drive around in my BMW X8 wearing R15 000 suites staying in R10 000 a night hotels.

I'm also convinced Stats SA is fudging the numbers, go look at the data you can pull down from the site.
You used to be able to get the source stats of the reports, now there's only limited datasets available. (happened around 2007).

stats SA needs to show the ANC its doing a good job with its governance.
otherwise the purge will take place and wipe them out.

leftist stupidity is, their logical thinking / mindset is only two-dimensional. they have no idea the world is three-dimensional and the worst is, factors are interlinked with each others, you can't separate them and then have the conclusion based on only 2 factors.

Well you don't have to stfu...but you also cant defend something you don't understand as true. These are facts.
Also I don't think this article attacks white folk at all. Employers should bare the brunt of such decisions.

No, ref to Black/Coloured. Yes it does not exclude anyone from examining it. Not my issue. You can examine it all you like, if at the end you still don't understand what this article means then it has all been fruitless really. Bee this, bee that...That's not the point.

You people just don't get it. His truth, is the real truth.

Don't try to understand what my statement means. You clearly don't understand it because this is not something that you will ever experience from my perspective. These are facts. You can examine what I said, but don't try to comment on it like you understand it.
