"force labour" is slavery.

if I said I will pay you R0 (not by force), will you work for me?

PS: food or shelter is classified as revenue, check your sars handbook. ;)
That doesn't make sense. There's no exchange. Zero payment is not wages.

I would be careful with that. There are very few places where there is actually a free market for energy.

For example; from the report where you claim " solar is cheaper than coal or gas power":


Isn't it shocking when there are "revenue support mechanisms" that the price is lower.

There are huge subsidies to solar power:
https://blogs.ei.columbia.edu/2019/09/23/energy-subsidies-renewables-fossil-fuels/

That being said, I am quite favourable to people building their own rooftop power systems for their houses (especially in South Africa), that is the only way that Eskom and their socialist electricity will get toppled.

Solar is cheaper than coal. In places with "revenue support mechanisms" in place it is MUCH cheaper than coal (up to 5 times cheaper). Coal costs over $130/MWh.

On the planet where a nation that is smaller geographically and engineering wise more advanced than the US couldn't make it work:

And the article mentions the solutions to their problems:
Changes required include building transmission lines eight times faster than they are currently being built, building new back-up power plants, and installing instruments to control electricity demand

Besides, I doubt the US would have the same problems with renewable supply being intermittent. While the whole of Germany might often have the same weather, the US is 30 times larger than Germany and it is always windy/sunny somewhere.

no leftist has the ability to understand what is "wage and money", if you do. you won't be a leftist.
Comrades, this is actually a true statement but not because of the first part of the "sentence" but rather the last part. No true leftists participate in this thread, except rietie who circumnavigated the spectrum.

Man, the conservatives on MyBB are all experts on multiple things. Data research scientists, news analysts, economics researchers, took modules from UNISA on law...

Pity every time they try to implement their expertise, things break.
People say what ever being true or not I would take it with a pinch of salt.
I think he is. But he'd be the first to tell you that most experts don't know schit, probably from first hand experience

Common. Whether you believe it or not it is pretty funny. I personally don't believe that there's fraud to the extent to overturn the election.

But it's a funny.

On a serious note with a serious voice. These guys obviously don't find it funny.

Or they struggled to get it. :ROFL:
Fair point, it was pretty funny, I think we all take this thread a bit too seriously at times. :)

Can someone check if the mods are still here? Maybe someone took them out and hung them! Lol.
