Facts. Those who don't want to see apartheid's legacy gone and South Africa's economy transformed use BEE as an excuse for unemployment.
There are many factors contributing to unemployment and BEE is not one of them.
South Africa will see transformation, those who have a problem need to buy plane tickets and train tickets, the inevitable cannot and will not be stopped.
Do you even know what this transformation is? Do you even know what it means? Let me explain it to you.
No government on Earth, in all of human history, has ever shared, nor will they ever share, power with the population. Fact.
No government in all of human history has ever freely given anything that does not benefit that government directly. Fact.
Empowering you does not benefit the government. Fact.
The goal of transformation in the context of South Africa is political power. It is to ensure that every facet of the economy is controlled by those with power, not those without.
It is to ensure that those without power will never be a threat to those with power.
Currently, big businesses in South Africa are a threat to the power structure of the ANC because the ANC is dependent on them for money.
The ANC wants to change this. They intend to wrest this financial power away from big businesses and into their hands, for the sake of power, not for your benefit. This is the ANC's Radical Economic Transformation goals.
You? You have no power. You have nothing they need except your vote. Why would they share economic power with someone who has nothing anyway?
