Your thinking is not flawed. It's perfect. Don't change a thing about it.

When you look up who owns Checkers, Shoprite, Pick n Pay, The South African Breweries, mines etc, there is no concentration owned by the white minority in South Africa and the Western conglomerates. 🙂

So in your world jealousy and envy are good enough reasons for "redress"? Well at least we are making progress. At least with understanding your thinking, not to solving any problems just yet, but identifying and accepting the problem is always the most difficult part.

So I am happy to accept that we will never see things the same, that's what makes us individuals, now moving on from that, with the huge favorability ratings that Zille enjoys in JHB, how much do you see her improving the DA vote in JHB?

1. DA gets a majority and govern outright.

2. They miss on a majority by a whisker and get the Freedom Front or some of the smaller parties to govern and don't need ANC, EFF, ActionSA or MK?

3. DA surpasses their highest ever result ever obtained in JHB which is 38% but still need one of the big parties for a coalition?

I don't know what the outcome will be, but 1 and 2 will be what the DA is aiming for. Zille has still not been named as the candidate so anything could still happen. There is going to be an intensive period of campaigning over the next 12 months that could swing the pendulum in many different ways.

You really need to go do your homework as pointed out before

Checker owned by Shoprite holdings - Biggest shareholders = PIC = Gov
Shopright owned by themselves - Biggest shareholders = PIC = Gov
PicknPay - Major Shareholder = PIC = Gov
SAB = BEE company is a major shareholder. Global company owns majority , so not SA citizens
You need to be more specific for the rest

The West and it's firms must decide if they are here to stay or are leaving and making room for others. The man in the interview addressed it adequately.

Making room for others? Who?

If "the West and its firms" up and leave, it's not like China and other BRICS "friends" are going to come in and completely fill the gap.

Screaming "We will not be bullied, WE DEMAND JOBS" won't solve unemployment if "the West and its firms" leave.

You only get that delusional kind of thinking with a chip like yours and pure ideological thinking.

Sure. 🤣
 
They went on a rant saying he must use a public health facility for the operation and he did. They haven't been seen since together with their negativity towards NHI which will do away with the inequality in the health sector in South Africa.

Kudos Minister!! 👏
