Personally I like Vavi, he is not wealthy and he is powerful within the alliance so it is not in his best interest for the country to go down the drain. You might say he will loot government once nationalization is policy but I doubt it because he is angering a lot of ANC people by constantly attacking corrupt ANC members. The Limpopo ANC has endorsed Malema's nationalization of mines policy, there are 8 provinces left and I am sure Malema and his cronies are working hard to try convince the 8 prvinsial ANC areas to support the policy. My guess is that IT WILL happen, nationalization of mines will become ANC policy. It's the truth, a very inconvinient truth. Malema's (clever) strategy is to gain support of the ANC branches. He gained support of the ANCYL branches all over the country to endorse the then unpopular nationalization of mines call. He succeeded with the ANCYL and won his second term unopposed, so it is easy to see that Malema WILL eventually convince ANC branches across the country to support him, and my guess is he wants to achieve that before December 2012. If he achieves that then Zuma will have no choice but to heed the call of the new ANC's resolution of mine nationalization.
All we ordinary educated folk can do is to accept that we live in a fragile country, a country that will quickly turn into a Zimbabwe from 2013. Since we are one of the lucky few South Africans that know where this country is heading, we should all prepare ourselves for the inevitable. We should all get our passports in order and maybe start planning an exit strategy out of South Africa.
