Capitalism doesn’t want an educated population.Quality education requires time to read, interpret,engage,observe & learn.Capitalism steals time by keeping the energy of the population busy trying to survive.Little energy & time gets left to be truly educated & overcome ignorance

@Gentlements How long will it take for Zuma to see that these colonial courts will never rule against Ramaphosa? This is still the apartheid government that forced Mandela to form Mkhonto Wesizwe because he understood that the judiciary was against black people. We're tired of these courts.
