The Independent has just reported that South Africas parliament just voted to seize privately owned land from farmers.
In the past, government seizure of privately owned farmland has always resulted in huge reductions in food production, whether it be in the Soviet Union, China, Zimbabwe, or, most recently, in Venezuela, where the recent government seizure of farmland was followed by most adults losing an average of 43 pounds in two years.
Why do the member’s of South Africas parliament think the results will be any different this time?
Thanks and yes, it does.
One more reason Ruth Bader Ginsburg likes the SA constitution so much.
I knew two guys from SA who sailed to Saint Maarten. They saw genocide coming.
Sadly, that has been rather obvious for several decades; but most figured that it wouldn’t come until Nelson Mandela had died. But the president was Nelson M’s pick for who was to follow him and yet Ramaphosa is in fact a real POS...corrupt as hell, radically anti-white, and a once jailed TERRORIST felon.
No problem. I think you understand what I meant.
What happens when their land is taken? Are they allowed to remain and continue working the land? Poor people; what a terrible situation.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
Here comes the South African kleptocracy.

South African Blacks would apparently rather starve than let Whites till 75% of the farmland.
As far as I’m concerned, South African White refugees are welcome in the USA. On the other hand, until they stop their campaign of hate against the Boer, South African Blacks (in general) can go jump.
No, they can NOT stay in their home, nor do anything re the land! They can't even take most of their belongings. It's a truly TERRIBLE situation.
And this new "grab" is for ALL whites, not just the farmers. Unfortunately, nobody talks about the rotten problems that the non-farmers have gone and are going through.
Well said just like you did in the other thread.
Hope they do!
Thanks.
Yes, we can hope they do. They need to take as much money as they can and get the hell out of the country.
Where will they go? The cities?
Maybe some will buy one way tickets out of the country. We should welcome them here.
Because their masters, the chinese, want those pesky rebellious wypipo out of the way for their (the chicoms) long term plans.
Thank you for the correction. How horrifying to have to walk away from your farm, or walk away from your house, which is the biggest investment most families have.
More starvation of the dark continent forthcoming. Stop all USA aid going to that POS continent immediately.
Everyone here posts "JUST LEAVE". This drives me CRAZY!
Where are they going to go, without a visa? And visas are almost impossible to get! Their system is based on a LOTTERY. You must pay XXX for each try/ticket and if you win one, it doesn't cover anyone but the ticket/visa holder.
The UK will now only take people with Brit ancestors.
Holland won't take ANY, since they hate and look down their collective noses at the Afrikaners.
The USA?FORGET IT...unless you have a large amount of money which you are bringing in.
Australia? Not anymore.
China, Japan, South Korea? LOL
South America? Nope.
Canada? Probably the same rules as the UK, but I don't know for sure.
Mexico, Egypt, the Middle East, the Scandinavian nations?
It’s an horrific situation and because they’re white, nobody cares. :-(
A great way, for non-farmers, to get out, now, is IF they work for a large company that has offices here, and get sent here to work. That doesn't mean that they can automatically stay here forever, but it's a far easier way for them to get out, bypassing the execrable visa lottery in RSA.
That is such a disgusting and infuriating situation. Thank you.
How awful.
