Yes it could happen but what are the chances?
I have shown you at least five former unionist who have set their sights firmly on accumulating wealth and they have pretty much said to hell with the workers. I don't see how you expect JZ to bend over backwards to accomodate Cosatu when their own leaders deserted them.
I did not dispute that, however, I provided a counter-argument, which you have not addressed. Reiterating your old argument, is not going to progress this debate. I suggest you try to counter my point.
Perceptions held by people in this forums differ markedly with those of international investors. The latter usually base their fears on facts whereas the former base theirs on media fiction.
How do you explain today's tumbling rand?
The world sadly does not revolve around our problems and our leaders. If markets tumble usually they do so due to other market factors outside of our control. As a developing nation we are most vulnerable to market instability throuout the developing world. Even if Tony Leon was our president.
Just a quick question for you, Bageloo. Where do you think international investors get their facts from? Surely not that same sensational media, like that naughty BBC who broadcast that completely dishonest report on crime the day before the state of the nation address to discredit our government.
Please also learn to argue. I did not say that leadership was a necessary condition for the rand to fall. In other words, just because the rand fell does not disprove my position. I feel I have provided adequate prove by citing the Mboweni example. If you want to disprove my theory, I suggest you find a counter-argument to that.
Really now Bageloo, this is primary school level debating.
