Unemployment in Socialist SA hits 44.4% including those who don’t want to work, which apparently contributes to Riots and looting!

South Africa now has the worst unemployment in the world according to Bloomberg, and now falls among other disastrous countries such as Colombia, Cuba, Syria and Venezuela. For all Ramaphosa’s nice speeches and promises, he does not understand that one main goal of a good government, is to establish an economy, which gives the people of the country the opportunity to make an honest living. The ANC government is not doing this at all. They set an example of corruption and immaturity. Corruption does not build an economy. Looting is just that. It builds nothing. And then the ridiculous reasons put forward: free housing, free education, free everything, which only exacerbates the above. And if ANC supporters do not get it for free, they throw a tantrum like a toddler, and burn down everything they see.

Emigration Tax? ANC Regime to Charge Emigrating South Africans an Additional “Exit Tax” on Retirement Funds!

In the National Treasury’s latest published Draft Tax Bills, which incorporates the tax proposals made in the 2021 Budget, the amendment proposes a particularly worrying amendment which may upend taxpayers’ carefully planned retirement. The Draft Taxation Laws Amendment Bill (TLAB) proposes an additional “exit tax” to tax retirement fund interests of individuals when they cease South African tax residency. This proposed amendment, due to come into operation on 1 March 2022, would be a further blow to emigrating South Africans wanting to cease their tax residency, following on from the three-year lock-in rule imposed on retirement annuities earlier this year.
