or politician
would you agree that Zuma's corruption was on another level to Mbeki's corruption?
yet they were both corrupt
your argument is like saying, well they are all corrupt so we can just except the ridiculous turbo level corruption then
corruption is like a circle, whether it is big or small, it is still 360 degrees...
accept not except
No for sure, corrupt is corrupt and lies are lies.
Zuma's first few years were actually very unstable.
it was just 2009
the rest were fairly stable
The massive dip shows instability. After that was stable, yes.
between 2.3 and 3.5 most of the way
ag come on... you cant say massive and then remove figures
Between 2009 and 2011 were unstable for the SA economy.
Therefore, his first few years were not "didnt look so bad either".
At the time, they were horrid.
Yeah Stability, but no growth
is anyone going to expand on context
or are you just going to pretend that that was a direct and immediate result of zumas election?
there is no point in discussing if you are going to actively ignore facts because they dont support your position
you dont have to guess
there is data
Well Zumas presidency started on the axing of Mbeki, so of course there would be some turmoil
which I know you love
why do choose to ignore this data?
China, same period as SA's massive dip.
to drift from this.....
This is the problem, with world politics at the moment... Being unable to concede that Trumps crazy levels of dishonesty, could be a risk to business is a good example of identity politics.
if we concede one point we feel we have to concede them all
economic policies are too left leaning at the moment, some weird SJW stuff going on in the world, but this planting a flag in the ground and defending everything is the real danger
the center is dead
he did a lot to kill it, but 2 years is like a fart in the wind
It isn't. It's 2 years.
2 years is more than 0 years.
If it isn't important, then what number would you like to start at?
4 years?
8 years?
Mugabe killed his economy almost, literally, overnight.
We should have the best idea when his first Term is concluded
If EWC goes ahead and our economy tanks, then are we still going to say "No, but you see, we need to wait until his first term is up before we can make any conclusions."
Yeah! But US and Trump are smarter than that, I think it would take time to see the affects on US markets.
