Letter To The ANC Government

It has come to my attention that recently the white man / woman has been in the news and has been scrutinised for not lending a helping hand towards building the country, including some ministers stating that we whites face a revolution form the Black population if we don’t start complying with the Equity Policies of the ANC, namely BEE and AA. Not to mention that we are called racist by ANC Youth League members and leaders like Julius Malema who continue to negatively influence the youth of South Africa in constantly stating that the White man is racist and does not help the previous disadvantaged population (mostly blacks). Are only the Whites racist in this country and leaders like Julius Malema not?

I have to emphasize the fact that most of the working middle class and upper class are mostly white and that this part of the population are being made solely responsible for building the country though their taxes being spent on helping a “only receiving hand”, and not a mutual helping hand. Since 94, our hard earned money has been spent on a part of the population that has only been discriminating and scrutinizing us for being white and for the injustices of the past by a Government and Political Party that no longer exists, not to mention the current Government that forces the White companies to comply with blatant racist policies in where jobs and partnerships have to be granted to people based on the colour of their skin (according to the constitution, if a certain group / race is being priveleged based on skin colour, it’s racism). Why is this not the case when jobs are being presented / given / promised to a person being Black?

Why did the ANC Government, after 94, rather spent time, money and resources buying companies for these previously disadvantaged race groups of the past when they sold the oil reserves instead of promising free houses, free electricity and water etc. You see, if this plan was implemented, where companies being sold could have been purchased by the Government and then given to the majority population to develop, grow and employ fellow black people where they can contribute to the building of the country, we might have had a different situation today. Job creation, poverty elimination and development of previous disadvantaged people could have been a thing of the past today.

If you do the numbers (minimum), you will find the following:

• Around 1500 business being sold a year (estimated)
• If the ANC spend money purchasing these businesses over a period of 15 years  instead if building free houses you are looking at around 22 500 business.
• If you employ around 70 black people per business, 1.575 million jobs created.
• Tax an additional 1.575 million people (R500 minimum); you would have generated R787.5 million in taxes during 15 years. (Around R52.5 million per year).
• Those 1.575 million people would no longer require free housing, any free electricity or water, as they do now have employment in which they can support themselves saving the Government Billions of Rands each year.
• As part of the Business structure and policies as set out by the Government when applying for such a business, these new employers have to show constant growth (year on year) where Government can now supply these companies with Government contracts, thus empowering them to grow, develop and employ more and more previously disadvantaged people from the townships. Say that those businesses grow with 10 employees each year, those companies would have had 220 employees by now, bringing down unemployment figures and employing nearly 5 million people by now.
• Taking the growth of 5 million people, taxed R500 per month, you now have generated revenue of nearly R2.4 billion over a period of 15 years through sustainable development.

Above would then be eliminate BEE and AA, and thus bringing racial discrimination and racial conflict to an end, eliminate unemployment, and eliminate welfare and building a stronger economy and stable societies. Helping each other is the point of development in the country, but how is this accomplished when a minority group of people is the “sole” responsible party for the development of both themselves and the majority of the population? When you ask of a majority population to support a majority population, you get a welfare state where nothing grows into sustainable development. But when you support / help the majority to start helping and developing themselves and not just give them “free support”, you will find that development will take place and welfare will be a thing of the past or it will now be a majority of Tax payers who can support a minority on welfare and not the other way around.

But simply having the majority population be responsible for the development and growth of a majority population and then force those minorities to do it alone while they are forced to give away more and more of their businesses (BEE / AA) and properties (Land reform and RDP Houses) will never work, at one stage you will have to get the majority population involved in helping to build the country and not just make empty promises in order for them to keep voting for you party in the next election.
