To the future we must look

One day when humans evolve beyond arrogance, racism and overall stupidity there may be peace.

That reality is distant as we are currently stuck in an abyss of stupidity. Currently, emotions and deceit is more important than rational decision making and long term beneficial outcomes.

Globally, actual criminals hold political and economic power. In South Africa we are led by many who have no education or actual skills etc. Since they know how to deceive, they are voted into authority. Oddly, those who vote for deceivers, do not recognize that the deceivers are responsible for the lack of service delivery. Thus the increasing poor classes and the deceivers are threatening democracy.

Example, the middle classes is fiscally liable for the health, education and welfare of the poor. The poor also vote for those that promise “free everything”. Whilst the middle class struggle to maintain themselves and government infrastructure, the poor demand more. This imbalance is unsustainable as those who pay to maintain the lifestyle of another, will ultimately revolt against the injustice. To those who think this opinion is harsh, remember the upper middle class pays on average 60 to 70% of their income in direct taxes. The quality of your home warrants you pay more rates, but the poor gets “free housing” and pays no rates. The middle class pay for Medical Aid and pays for the “free hospital” for the poor. The middle class pays school fees and the poor gets exemptions.

One day, the middle class will realize that a quick way to stop poverty is to limit those who re-create poverty with physical sterilization. Poverty is not genetic but the numbers increase greatly amongst the poor since they refuse learn from history. It takes one generation to sacrifice to uplift a family.

Thus governance is the duty of the middle class. Only the middle class can balance the greed of the wealthy and the poor. Both the wealthy and poor suffer from psychosomatic issues of entitlement.

The poor continue to demand free water, electricity, health, welfare, education and housing? The wealthy pardon themselves as they have lawyers, auditors and the ability to corrupt the authorities.

Thus we need a new quality of educated and skilled politician and official to ascend and accept the middle class must hold the balance of power. We cannot compete with any Asian nation when it comes to productivity as they simply work harder and smarter. South Africans are mostly not intelligent people. The middle class must accept this reality and act on what is best for all South Africans. The rich are insulated by wealth and the poor makes endless demands.

It is the responsibility of the middle class to save South Africa.
