Public servants (yes, that's YOU politicians - you serve us, and are paid by us) should only be allowed to use state (their) provided resources, including power grid, hospitals, schools, roads and travel options. Anything they'd like extra should be for their own account.
Seems like you agree they should get free power and water?

In all honesty they should made to live in the worse areas. Maybe then they would realise and try and uplift those places. Then move on and so on.

So I have no issue with utilities being provided for "free" at the ministerial estate or whatever its called, but it should be classed as a perk and taxed at such a rate in my opinion.

So half of them (If not all) is responsible for the the theft to the extend we cant go without loadshedding for two days. Yet they get no load shedding.... this country just gets better.

Let them suffer like the rest of us, they steal enough to afford a gene or solar

Comrades!' he cried. 'You do not imagine, I hope, that we pigs are doing this in a spirit of selfishness and privilege? Many of us actually dislike milk and apples. I dislike them myself. Our sole object in taking these things is to preserve our health. Milk and apples (this has been proved by Science, comrades) contain substances absolutely necessary to the well-being of a pig. We pigs are brainworkers. The whole management and organisation of this farm depend on us. Day and night we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink the milk and eat those apples.
Holy sheet, how accurate is that. It's like they used it as an instructional manual instead of a warning.

And the next line:
"is for YOUR sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples. Do you know what would happen if we pigs failed in our duty? Jones would come back! Yes, Jones would come back!”

Where can I find all the contact details for these ministers, I'm working late this evening, I want to see something.

I actually think this idea may have legs...

Whenever there is load shedding in the country, their phones must just get bombarded with requests for them to do the most mundane things because "they must always be available"... lets actually test that theory.

It's a fact, don't make it my problem if you can't deal with it.
I CAN deal with it. You just don't like the way I deal with it.
Can you not see that defense of anything you regard as black but any means including irrelevant deflection actually reduces your standing (such as it is) on this forum to phukwit, when could do so much better.
Would be sad if it wasn't so funny.
(actually that last remark is unfair, a bit like clubbing baby seals but i'm going to borrow from you and leave it there)
