Concerned about the quality of journalists at EFF press briefings. Aside from a few experienced reporters, weak questioning doesn’t serve the public. Growth matters, but these are high-stakes platforms, standards and preparedness must come first.

I pay 42% tax every month in Germany but if:
1. I loose my job, the govt pays me 60% of my salary and help to find a new one
2. I have access to 3 years leave if I have a baby with a percentage of my salary and my job will wait for me until I resume.
3. Education is free in govt schools from primary to PhD
4. For every child I have, they get paid €250 monthly until they turn 18
5. I can buy a monthly ticket of €56 monthly and can travel all around the country via train (not high speed) and buses.
6. At any emergency, once you call the ambulance, it arrives within 20 minutes
7. Deffribilators and SOS access are available at every train station and high ways.
8. If I get stock in a country, I call the govt and they come to my support.
Let me stop here.
You that will pay about 30% tax in Nigeria that was copied 90% from the UK tax law, what will you get?
Here is a list of some of the top Apartheid Laws against blacks in South Africa. Contrast and compare and see whether @elonmusk is saying the truth:
1. Population Registration Act (1950) – Classified all South Africans by race, forming the basis of all other apartheid laws.
2. Group Areas Act (1950) – Forced racial groups to live in separate areas; led to mass forced removals.
3. Pass Laws Act (1952) – Required Black South Africans to carry passbooks to move or work outside designated areas.
4. Bantu Education Act (1953) – Created an inferior school system designed to limit Black South Africans to menial labor.
5. Separate Amenities Act (1953) – Enforced racial segregation in public facilities like parks, buses, toilets, and beaches.
6. Suppression of Communism Act (1950) – Used to ban anti-apartheid activists and silence political opposition.
7. Natives (Abolition of Passes and Coordination of Documents) Act (1952) – Consolidated pass laws into an internal passport system controlling all Black movement.
8. Prohibition of Mixed Marriages Act (1949) – Banned marriages between white people and people of other races.
9. Immorality Amendment Act (1950) – Criminalized sexual relations between white people and non-white people.
10. Bantu Homelands Citizenship Act (1970) – Stripped Black South Africans of national citizenship and assigned them to “homelands.”
Add all of these to the violent enforcement of these laws on black people in South Africa.
