The world is not the way we’re
led to see it: it is often of the opposite.
More than ever solutions to political-social-environmental-monetary
problems best fit ruling party or involved corporate desires. That’s you left
out.
When non-fake facts for hard decisions are needed, engage a stranger, question an enemy.
Their interests lie in being
right, in being paid – not in sucking up.
If it’s a game, consult a pal, see what the government said.
The Zondo Commission won’t create
justice, bring down Soweto’s debt, stop farm murders, restore municipalities or
fix the railways. It sells ‘news’, wag tongues, drives FB.
Affirmative action destroys: achiever
Thomas Sowell[1] condemns
60 years of USA affirmation … it produced the opposite.
Likewise, 4-decades of Malay
preference, similar: Group advancement is more about changing underlying value
systems summaries erudite Dr Mahathir[2].
Who in South Africa has the
new-money after 25-years of promoting those who can’t?
Don’t question what
works today, consider, ‘and tomorrow?’
Xenophobia in SA would nearly disappear
if there were jobs. Thinking, proud humans aren’t social parasites, but downtrodden
and depressed they look for reasons: who better than a different dialect doing
better than them on their own turf?
The Black African male I grew up
with respected and protected women, children and all things community of all
races. But then they had a community, some status (neither the greatest
materially) and held their heads high.
The Reserve Bank’s role since
1994 has been to borrow digitally created
Rand from Big Brother in Europe/USA and get charged repayments in foreign currency!
Nationalising the SARB will change
nothing unless it asserts it’s sovereignty
and is used (properly) as SA’s project and growth fund.
In SA that cannot happen. A basic
life rule is, never pass your wallet to the corrupt. So what to do when they are the
bosses?
Private and corporate debts are
the highest in world history, far higher than in 2008. I doubt SA can escape. The quantitative-easing pigeons
have to land soon … the private bank run system will collapse and only their
owners and the top 15% will be safe. Keep a year’s money at home.
The Universal Basic Income (UBI) concept
won’t work in SA. Payments are set at the poverty line, encouraging recipients to
find/create work: As much as I like it >50% of SAfrican’s require daily guidance but there are few life-skills
teachers in the field/townships/squatter-camps. We’ll applaud the one or two coke-tin
artists on FB but what of the 29,999, 998 other needy?
Business must be profitable but,
while profit-maximisation remains the goal for the few stock-market owners earth
destruction will be the norm. Will you keep buying anyway?
Climate Change worsens every situation.
Think of CC as the
champion breaking another 100m record: as the child we’ve sent desperately tries to present the
‘you’re amazing’ bouquet of extinct flowers to CC, it has moved off, re-filling
its lungs to scream.
SA opening a couple of high-tech
businesses, the government announcing it’s set to train masses to tackle the 4th
Industrial Revolution is … naïve.
There will be more jobs created
than ever before, but not for most people.
At
first machines will need partner-operatives with IQs of around 100 but
then they will learn quicker because their
‘value system’ ensures cooperation /learning from each other.
Real brain power is required.
Rugby-cricket is different – no worries, jus lite-th-bra, marionette
meat, down a be-ya: millions to choose from for people can be trained … to that
level.
Chinese IQs average about 101 yet 40% will be of the new
‘useless class’ – robots are everywhere.
Africa’s IQ averages are ≤ 80.
SA’s
needs are very different, but it’s taboo to discuss IQ.
‘You’ve cancer!’ ‘Sshh … it will god away.’
Never recruit a man. Recruit the
best person for that job. Promoting
women or special interest/disability groups because they’re women etc. only
proves an ≤ 80 IQ mind-set. Economic collapse furthers no one’s human rights.
Never appeal to friends. A
handful bought my book, most sales went to strangers. Friends, said Confucius, rather than support, prefer to see friends
fail.
Disaster awaits a friend-run charity
shop, business or country.
Friends believe in rights &
gratitude. Competent ‘enemies’ have something to prove ….
As entrepreneurs and professionals
(mostly white but by % many blacks) leave the world knows SA is rudderless.
It is now known the desire to take-over, to be in
control, is not correlated to intelligence[3].
Every issue listed has a simple –
hard to do but can do – solution.
But … while SA follows a 500-year-old British party system designed for
elite control of the masses, not one solution
will see daylight.
That’s a truth a South African in
Malaysia has gathered from some of the world’s
greatest minds.
I’m sure you’ve answers - please comment.
