Well,.. South Africa will soon be like Zimbabwe; Inflation at 6.5 quindecillion novemdecillion percent - 65 followed by 107 zeros. “Prices doubling every
24 hours. “Shops have not accepting local currency.”

[goldstategop]

The ANC wants to transform Africa's richest country into a Zimbabwe-style basketcase. Quelle surprise!

What a bunch of morons.

Don’t they know that basing policies on California’s model will fail?

Did anyone think it wouldn’t come to this? Sadly, this might be a preview of what’s in store for this country in about 100 years or so.

Obamugabe wants that here,too!.........

In about 100 years or so?.....try 100 days...........

[SandRat]

I know.

It works for the leaders. They’re driving around in fancy cars with armed guards to keep the riffraff out. It’s the same tactic used to get Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and California in the shape they’re in. Promise people with no understanding of economics or money management free stuff. Steal stuff from the job creators to pay for it. When people start going out of business, raise taxes on the remaining businesses. When the whole thing collapses, keep making promises and pick over the bones.

Crap, if they go through with all that, they’ll look like the United States in 10 years.

SCARY!

[Red Badger]

I predict that with a huge (D) majority in both houses, by the end of Obamama’s term, you and I will not recognize this country. It will be the greatest fall since Rome was sacked by the Vandals........

James Michener wrote an interesting book concerning the history of South Africa..

 

It ain't nothing like one might anticipate before reading.

To be or not to be, that is the question..........

I always thought of the ANC as pretty much communist. This to me is just degrees of insanity already in place.

[RegulatorCountry]

I’m confused, here. The ANC is communist. What is to the left of that?

[ExpatGator]

Zimbabwe part deux.

I doubt it. Political systems in collapse often go much faster than that.

It's the difference between:

- on the edge of the cliff

- gone over the cliff
