South Africans, at what point do we admit that we have normalised failure?
How do we accept a system where citizens can lose up to 41% of their salaries to tax, yet corruption continues to thrive, rural roads remain undrivable, municipalities collapse, and local councillors operate with little to no accountability?
Taxation without visible service delivery is not governance; it is betrayal.
This country does not lack money. It lacks ethical leadership, consequence management, and political will. We cannot keep comparing ourselves to countries like Qatar and pretending the difference is luck. The difference is leadership, planning, discipline and accountability.
South Africa deserves a government that respects every rand taken from its people. The amount of tax we are paying is just insane๐ญ๐

Dr @MbuyiseniNdlozi, I trust you are keeping well and warm during these cold days sweeping across parts of country.๐ฟ๐ฆ
I agree wholeheartedly with you that our engagements should never descend into ad hominem attacks or belittle education. Education must be valued and defended, for it remains the foundation upon which our children build their futures.
At the same time, it is worth remembering that wisdom is not confined to the classroom. Lived experiences also carry deep insights that enrich society. We must appeal to those who are "educated" to be mindful not to present themselves as the sole custodians of knowledge or to treat others as less wise. They should not speak over communities or appear to be lecturing them on how to advance their struggles.
I am of the view that the in public discourse, the "educated strata" of society should set a good example for children, who each morning commit to the disciplined routine of schooling, by showing respect for the voices and lived experiences of those "less educated". Without such respect, children may grow up believing that disregarding the experiences of the "less educated" is the proper way to engage with others.
My good Dr, I will argue that education achieves its highest purpose when it listens, learns, and collaborates with society in humility. In that way, it becomes not only fashionable, but also inclusive and transformative.
Thank you for engaging my post. Wishing you a pleasant weekend.๐๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฆ
