“Those who wrote the Constitution clearly understood that power is dangerous and needs to be limited by being separated — separated not only into the three branches of the national government but also separated as between the whole national government, on the one hand, and the states and the people on the other.”

I'm wondering if my hearing is well because I've just heard Ramaphosa make commitments that are trully astounding and frankly unbelievable. He says this is their manifesto about renewal of local government performance.
He says they accept failures and are now committed to effect urgent corrections And reforms.
Some of the six actions he announced include:
1. The ANC shall review local government funding model in the next five years to ensure that it reflects the realities of metropolitan and rural municipalities.
2. Mayors and councillors and municipal leaders shall be compelled to conclude performance contracts.
3. Municipal councils shall not be allowed to pass unfunded budgets.
4. Municipalities shall from now on pay all debtors on time.
Have I heard well?
Why should this happen now when it failed in the past five years?
From what he says, it looks like many municipal functionaries will have to be fired. WOW.

Thomas Sowell: “Definitions being what they are, young people who waste their time around the house or on street corners are called ‘unemployed,’ while those who waste their time in classrooms are called ‘students.’”
Thomas Sowell on why culture matters more than “society”:
Germans built the piano industry in Australia, America, England, and Russia.
Chinese students major heavily in science and technology in Malaysia and the United States.
Groups carry their patterns with them. The idea that society simply molds people is contradicted by the evidence.
