🚨📍 WHY BBBEE MUST GO!

Here’s the funniest and saddest thing about how parts of BBBEE public procurement works in South Africa. 😭

Government needs to buy an X-ray machine worth around R800,000.

But because there may not be a Black-owned manufacturer or supplier with the product directly available, the system sometimes creates a middleman arrangement where a third-party BBBEE company buys the SAME machine from an existing supplier… then resells it back to government for R2 MILLION.

So taxpayers end up paying an extra R1.2 million not because the machine improved, not because technology changed, not because service got better… but simply because paperwork now says “empowerment.”

How is this sustainable in an economy already struggling with corruption, debt, collapsing hospitals and budget shortages?

Real empowerment should mean:
• building Black manufacturers
• creating engineers
• funding innovation
• developing skills and ownership

Not creating expensive middlemen who inflate prices while hospitals, schools and citizens pay the price.

South Africans we must ask itself a serious question: are we empowering people… or just recycling procurement money through politically acceptable channels? 🚨

🧵 ANC Fuel Tax Heist Exposed: Oil Prices Same as 2012, But You’re Paying Double – And the ANC are Pocketing the Difference.

South Africans are being sold a lie at the petrol pump. The ANC government and its mouthpieces in the Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources keep blaming “global oil prices” and “geopolitical tensions” for the crippling cost of fuel. Yet the numbers don’t lie. Brent Crude is trading at levels almost identical to 2012 and 2013 (around $110 per barrel) but inland petrol now costs more than double what it did back then. The difference? A deliberate, decade-long tax grab by the ANC that has turned fuel into one of the biggest cash cows for a regime that then mismanages, wastes, or simply steals the revenue anyway.

@TheCourierGuy_ Pathetic service! Parcel out for delivery last Monday, unable to receive during a thunder storm in Mbombela. Now the parcel is in Johannesburg! A week later still no parcel

[Heather Goslin @HeatherGos]

@TheCourierGuy_ My parcel was in Mbombela on 14 April for delivery, now it is in Johannesburg for delivery in Mbombela! Why?

"Merit and merit alone" they said. Now they evict white boys from the sports teams or refuse to let the team play if it has too many white boys.

They're such liars, and too stupid to know or care that the whole world now sees them for the deceitful and corrupt people they are.

In one hand: a clothespin from the 1960s. Solid hardwood, smooth from decades of use. It still works perfectly, some 60 years later.
In the other: a clothespin from 2025. Lighter, paler wood, brittle. The spring is thin and unstable. Marketed as “extra durable,” my dad just raised an eyebrow.
At first glance, it’s just two clothespins. But they tell a bigger story — the shift from durability to disposability, from craftsmanship to cost-cutting, from stewardship to constant consumption. This is planned obsolescence in action.
Products are designed to fail so we must keep buying. Slowly, subtly, they break. Frayed wires, cracked hinges, brittle springs. Not because we want more, but because the old was never built to last.
The costs are everywhere. Landfills overflow. Wallets empty. And maybe most quietly, our spirits grow accustomed to impermanence, to the idea that nothing is meant to endure.
What if this philosophy extends beyond objects? What if it shapes how we treat relationships, communities, homes, even the Earth — as temporary, replaceable, disposable?
It doesn’t have to be this way. That 1960s clothespin reminds us another path is possible. That we once made things to last, and we can again. That quality, care, and intention matter. That we can design for repair, for continuity, for meaning.

@TimesLIVE Or perhaps because the ANC has failed the electorate. Unemployment, lack of service delivery, pathetic education and deteriorating medical services. A wonderful track record!

It's likely that–at times–you have felt up against insurmountable odds.

But God doesn't even blink at the roadblocks in front of you. He has already torn down the biggest obstacle we will ever face, the veil of our sin that separated us from His holy embrace.

He will, in the same way, lead you through every challenge you will ever face.

@dolfi1920 I have been waiting since 03 September for compensation for a suitcase that Lufthansa managed to annihilate. When is my payment going to be processed?

Such a great point was made about online gambling at the Budget breakfast. As most people who gamble are grant recipients, it is SA taxpayers who are funding these online, offshore gambling businesses…
