One thing about love people overlook is how mentally and emotionally present you have to be to really feel it. Nowadays that every one is doing so many things at once, on our phones, and distracted by everything going. it’s hard to be present. which is making it hard to feel love

South Africa's legal system is designed to make it impossible to hold business corporations criminally accountable. The latest example is how the NPA is handling "state capture" cases.

The prosecuting authority recently announced that it would enrol additional state capture cases in 2025. Judging by how they've been going about their business, this means they'll announce with much fanfare how they've charged this or that politician and are now ready to investigate what exactly the charges are about.

Meanwhile, there is no talk of McKinsey, KPMG and major banks wearing "orange overalls".

All of this is because the country's legal architecture was intentionally structured to shield corporations from liability as much as possible.

For instance, the Companies Act and doctrines of "corporate personhood" make it nearly impossible to hold businesses criminally accountable. Furthermore, the State treats corporations as economic necessities, their misconduct downplayed in the name of investment and growth. The mantra is that they are too big to fail, too big to jail.

This is totally intentional and was written into the Constitution when the original "Government of National Unity" asked American multinational corporations to send their in-house lawyers to come and "assist" in authoring the Constitution. https://t.co/OrNyLik4Zo

The latest method to ensure corporations can do whatever they like is the Deferred Prosecution Agreements arrangement. These DPAs enable companies to avoid trials by paying penalties or committing to minor changes.

However, these agreements lack transparency and court supervision, keeping the public clueless about the extent of corporate corruption.

For instance, in January 2024, instead of facing criminal charges, SAP executives reached a deal with the NPA to pay a R2.2 billion fine for their role in "state capture". That's it. Just like that, the software giant bought its way out of prosecution.

Such fines don't work and evidence from the US shows that such agreements fail to deter repeat offences, yet the NPA continues to adopt them as a shortcut to justice.

Furthermore, the NPA still relies heavily on the 1977 Criminal Procedure Act, which focuses on individual liability, leaving corporations immune to criminal prosecution.

Remember how Jacob Zuma ended up in jail for refusing to reappear in front of the State Capture inquiry? Well, Multichoice flat-out ignored that same commission and that was the end of the story.

It should not be difficult to see that the NPA’s approach entrenches a two-tier justice system—one where politicians are prosecuted (and persecuted) while corporate criminals walk free.

Until South Africa reforms its laws to hold businesses accountable with the same energy as individuals, the legal system will remain a tool of institutionalised injustice, protecting the powerful at the expense of the public.

True justice requires more than prosecuting a few high-profile politicians; it demands dismantling the structures that let corporations operate above the law.
