This country was not well run pre 1994. The country was in debt, electricity and water coverage was around 50%. Now 90% +. More people in absolute poverty, more malnutrition, more illiteracy.

The country’s debt to GDP ratio was sitting at 55%. Mbeki tried to reduce it to close to 20% but Zuma undid everything and we went back to around 55% then Cyril and covid made everything worse. So basically Mbeki still remains be best president South Africa has ever had.

"Between 1994 and 2022, laws were enacted that served to oppress and further isolate non-whites". Cosmiked for you. Do we learn from history?

Absolutely. You can take my word for it. It is however a very very common mistake. I have heard it used incorrectly by television news readers. Easily as common as the lender / borrower conundrum.

You got the outgoing (emigrate) and incoming (immigrate) part right, however, applying the prepositions is another thing. Check my posts again, I was highlighting this. You cannot emigrate to, you emigrate from your point of origin. Similarly you immigrate to. There are many examples on the internet which explains this, take your time check.

You never hear of a country of emigrants as you become an immigrant when you get there. All immigrants emigrated.

Yes all immigrants emigrate from their home country... and they immigrate to a foreign country for permanent residence. I hope this helps.

But your post suggests people emigrating are the ones who destroyed the country.

So, I'm an ANC voter by virtue of being black? Like it's in my DNA?

You left out the Group Areas Act. This act caused whites to have a nice life?
