Im battling with this conversation ............ and then thought about this quote:
I have a problem with the term "we". I find myself getting dragged into situations and to places where I don't belong. This despite doing everything I can to fit in.
An economy that is being sabotaged by the anc ineptitude's.
There is a government that is being driven by a populist agenda. It was not always this way. And the ANC of today is the ANC in name only. Just as the government, is a government in name only. The discipline, commitment and structures have been replaced by a kleptocracy. And the question that needs to asked is what went wrong?

Just because its not comfortable doesn't make it confusing!
I am not sure I agree with you. It is most confusing. Ask those who are so naive to believe that getting rid of Zuma is going to fix the problem.

Ummm I don't think anyone says that getting rid of Zuma is going to fix the problem, but getting rid of the top nob is a start to getting rid of the problem. If we could get someone with at least a brain cell in power that can lead properly then we could move forward. Just look at what Namibia has just done.
Only card carrying members of the ANC can get rid of the top nob and I don't think they share your concerns. Do you not find that confusing?
No I don't because a lot of "card carrying" members of the ANC have changed their way of thinking and are still changing their way of thinking - so if enough of them change their vote we can slowly start a change - There is talk of Gauteng hopefully going to the DA. In addition the ANC's Executive Council can also ask him to step down. Nothing confusing about this at all. Im sorry if you don't understand.
PS. I would NEVER leave this country, but you I think would be a perfect candidate for Australia
There is one thing that you guys need to understand about Zuma, he is no fool. Yes, i said it.Let me explain to you why I said it. People think that Zuma has lots of wives and lots of kids because he likes to shag anything that moves, yes maybe, but there is more to it. He has a huge extended family that he has strategically placed into government positions. I put my cock on a block that he has a uncle, auntie, cousin or whatever everywhere in government. Although the ANC might be able to get rid of him as president they will never be able to get back the power that they gave him. The ANC themselves got knobbed in the eye and they are too stupid to see it.
About the economy; @southcape, I have no idea what you are whinging about, I got R30K worth of work today from a client who got a R660K order from New York. What you need to do is to stop whinging and to start using your head to make money. The money lies in exports. Make something that isn't labour intensive, does not require imported components and fills a gap abroad!
Who is whinging? What I said is that there is no future for my boys and that the value of the assets I have worked hard to secure has just halved. That is not whinging. It is simply stating facts. Yes there are opportunities. But times have changed, the economy is in unchartered territory and there is no going back to the comfort zone. It doesn't work like that.
You don't travel outside the country? You don't source products and services from outside the country? How many million got wiped off the stock exchange? Or was that billions? Prices on new cars? What am I missing?
............ the rest I just deleted ..... Its not my job to give you ideas.
No you are not an activist. A DA member maybe. But I somehow doubt it. If you are, that is the reason the DA will never amount to anything more than a lame and ineffective opposition. You need a bit of juju if you really want to change the course of this countries politics. And I am afraid that you and so many others, just do not understand the dynamics of the roller coaster ride you are on.
But enjoy the ride.
And do not complain when it's all over.
The thing that I find most interesting about those who claim to understand things better than everybody else all hold totally different points of view. @HR - We are clearly too doff to understand what that guy is on about...
