South Africa needs another enlightened leader like Nelson Mandela, but it keeps electing imitations of Robert Mugabe. President Cyril Ramaphosa confirmed recently that his government plans to expropriate private property without compensation, following the examples of Zimbabwe and Venezuela.
Mr. Ramaphosa says he wants “land reform” to “unlock economic growth, by bringing more land in South Africa to full use, and enable the productive participation of millions more South Africans in the economy.” In his telling, South Africa’s ills are related to the proportion of whites and blacks tilling the soil, not the economic mismanagement of predecessor Jacob Zuma or the ruling African National Congress (ANC).

Supporters of expropriation claim black South Africans own less than 2% of rural land, and less than 7% of urban land, thanks to apartheid-era policies. But the government’s 2017 land audit used questionable data and underestimated land returned to blacks since the ANC won power in 1994. The Institute of Race Relations estimates black South Africans control 30% to 50% of the country’s land.
Mandela insisted that land reform is best achieved through a “willing buyer, willing seller” principle, as it is in other democracies with a strong rule of law. When polled, the vast majority of blacks prefer cash instead of titles. Many black South Africans have streamed into cities to find jobs and better schools for their children.
But the ANC’s Zuma-era economic follies left many of these migrants jobless, and sent crime rates rising. South Africa’s economy shrank 2.2% in the first quarter, as investors and capital fled. The opposition Democratic Alliance now governs Cape Town, Johannesburg and Pretoria. Mr. Ramaphosa is promising more government spending to regain public support, but snatching private property is about as destructive a policy as there is. The ANC was founded as a revolutionary party, and the tragedy is that it won’t let the revolution end.
Lol right from the beginning opens up with the good intention to justify the expropriation, the road to hell is paved with such intentions. Problem is only people aware of the truth knows its a bullshit excuse, the lesser informed takes it at face value, and it goes to show that the ignorance is rife... We truly are entering a new dark age.

Only the cucks leave
to me this is more about awareness than anything else.
not going anywhere myself.
We should advise some farmers to move down to cape.They can enter a new agri market and export also instead of just doing local which is too much of a volatile market. Smaller scale is also a better option IMO and the future of agricultural. I should do a report to check how much land is usable and what their options are
@HoppeanSnake_ZA yup hence why I want people to move to WC rather than jumping ship ,not just farmers but all Afrikaners
Why move to Hungary when Orania is closer? Our people are searching for a home in foreign lands when home is on the Orania river. Very<:IQ:468409414592757780>
No EFF in Hungary for one.
or ANC
or BLF
I can see why people want to leave. Sucks not feeling safe in your own country and being discriminated against.
