THE END OF SOUTH AFRICA !!
Ahh, liberal/progressive/socialist /communism at it's finest.
Looks like South Africa is becoming a very large Detroit....
As we've been saying for over ten years, Nelson Mandela’s African National Congress is nothing more than a communist front, and highly "incompetent and corrupt" group at that.
THE END OF SOUTH AFRICA !!

The End of South Africa
White South Africans are in grave danger; there may be a solution.
By Josh Gelernter
Things are very bad in South Africa. When the scourge of apartheid was finally smashed to pieces in 1994, the country seemed to have a bright future ahead of it. Eight years later, in 2002, 60 percent of South Africans said life had been better under apartheid. Hard to believe — but that’s how bad things were in 2002. And now they’re even worse.
When apartheid ended, the life expectancy in South Africa was 64 — the same as in Turkey and Russia. Now it’s 56, the same as in Somalia. There are 132.4 rapes per 100,000 people per year, which is by far the highest in the world: Botswana is in second with 93, Sweden in third with 64; no other country exceeds 32.
Before the end of apartheid, South African writer Ilana Mercer moved, with her family, to Israel; her father was a vocal opponent of apartheid, and was being harassed by South African security forces. A 2013 piece on World Net Daily quotes Mercer as saying, with all her anti-apartheid chops, that “more people are murdered in one week under African rule than died under detention of the Afrikaner government over the course of roughly four decades.” The South African government estimates that there are 31 murders per 100,000 people per year. Or about 50 a day. That would make South Africa the tenth most murderous country in the world, outpacing Rwanda, Mexico, and both Sudans. And that’s using South Africa’s official estimates — outside groups put the murder rate 100 percent higher.
Choosing not to trust the South African authorities is a safe bet — South Africa’s government, which has been led by Nelson Mandela’s African National Congress since the end of apartheid, is outstandingly incompetent and corrupt.
Of course, de facto one-party rule doesn’t promote integrity. Unemployment is 25 percent, but President Jacob Zuma, of the ANC, recently spent $24 million of public money to add a pool and amphitheater to his private home. Not long after the story broke, he was elected to a second five-year term. Think-tank theorist Leon Louw, who helped defeat apartheid, calls the crime and corruption “a simple manifestation of the breakdown of the state. The government is just appallingly bad at everything it does: education, healthcare, infrastructure, security, everything that is a government function is in shambles.”
He adds — citing “anecdotal data” — that “most people don’t bother to report crimes.”
It appears that South Africa is about the most dangerous place you can be outside a war zone. What’s more worrying is the chance that it might become a war zone. Nelson Mandela was able to hold the “rainbow nation” together, but he’s passed on. Now, according to the human-rights organization Genocide Watch, South Africa is at pre-genocide stage 6 of 8: “Preparation.”

I would like to say this is a shock to me, but it is not.
Look at Rhodesia / Zimbabwe.

Looks like the Zombie Apocalypse is gathering momentum.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

It is as simple as that.
This has been coming from the start and the figures given by the SA Govt are cooked in order to look better than they are. So-called Xenophobic murders are rife. the police have around 1500 members with criminal records, and are often involved in Cash-In-Transit heists, various armed robberies home, invasions etc. All these crimes have in common the extreme violence with which they are perpetrated. In fact the police are not trusted by any communities.
As of 2014 the country's state owned power utility Eskom has again implemented a country-wide three stage rolling load-shedding program to try and avoid a nationwide blackout due to the power generating infrastructure not having been upgraded for at least 20 years. There has predictably not been a tsunami of foreign investment inflows.
The traditional core of the country's economy has been rooted in resources. The mining sector is in an absolute shambles with debilitating strikes all but crippling the industry all the while government dithers unable to act like a deer in the headlights. Not however missing any opportunity to siphon off funds for their own personal enrichment.
Their response? The State President Jacob Zuma in a recent speech effectively blamed all the current issues and problems squarely upon the white community. Completely ignoring the fact that from inheriting the powerhouse of Africa with first rate infrastructure, public medical facilities second to none, an effective police force and an economically small but effective military and a thriving industrial and business base, to reducing it through purges of whites from skilled technical and managerial positions replacing them with political appointees, family and friends effectively reducing the breadbasket of Africa to just another basket-case in Africa.
The DA run Western Cape is the closest we have to a correctly run local government but the ANC keeps up an unrelenting program of trying to destabilise them by capitalising on racial divides and tensions.

To be brutally honest. The problem is the people, not the leaders. If the people allow their leaders to do whatever they want, the leaders will take complete advantage. This is not only true in Africa, but everywhere. The American constitution is more about preventing abuse of power than anything else. The founding fathers knew that leaders will be just as evil as the people allow them to be.
In Africa, we have two countries that , until relatively recently, were very good places for Africans to live in. Rhodesia and South Africa. The reason why these countries worked so well, for all inhabitants, is that they kept the vote out of the hands of cretins.
Rhodesia had a qualified vote, where anyone with a matric certificate (secondary school) would be eligible to vote. This handled the problem quite elegantly, in that it was not a race-based system at all. However, because of the IQ Bell Curve and the average IQ of the black residents being in the low 70s, and the average white IQ being about the same as it is elsewhere, 100, the vote did end up being largely restricted to whites. The rest of the world could not allow that and sanctions were imposed and the country eventually was forced into a majority rule situation. The switch from a government with an average IQ of 100, to one of an average of about 72 was catastrophic. Who else has actually lost their currency?
In South Africa, the voting restrictions were less fair. For many years, the vote was restricted to whites only, but in later years, it was extended to the Colored community (Mixed Race) and the Indian community in a try-cameral parliament.
Blacks we entirely excluded from voting, which was unfair to the many black people who dwelled on the upper reaches of the bell curve and were entirely capable of making rational choices.
The world demands an all or nothing franchise, so sanctions were again imposed and the country was slowly strangled until power was handed to the black majority.
Again, the completely predictable happened and rule by cretins quickly destroyed everything. Whites were kicked out of government jobs and these jobs were given to sub-normal intellects who thought that management was driving a German sedan and having lunch.
Nelson Mandela was a brief flash of OKness. He served one term as President and failed to curb the rising corruption and non-management now infecting the country.
He handed power to Mbeki, who thought he was much smarter than he was. His claim to fame was corruption in the form of a hugely expensive arms deal that filled the pockets of the top guns in his party while the aircraft, submarines and corvettes they bought were mothballed or sunk because there were no blacks who could qualify to sail or fly them. Mbeki also denied that HIV cause AIDS and prescribed salad to sufferers. He cause the death of over 350 000 of his own people with this stubborn denial.
The latest cretin, President Zuma has somehow avoided his day in court for hundreds of charges of corruption by suborning the national prosecuting authority and stocking the judiciary with his own tribesmen.
Here we are now, 20 years after majority rule. Everything is broken, the post office doesn't work, we get electricity for a few hours a day only, and this will soon stop too.
How nice to be moral.

Bingo.
Unfortunately, both the "all" and the "nothing" franchise have the same result.
"Rights" cannot exist without corresponding "responsibilities".

Ironically there is a radio advert (commercial) being aired that says exactly this.
I think they got their target audience confused with the choir
Of course the fact that the country is disintegrating around our ears is a fact lost on the masses. They've got other priorities.
