@CamWrynn@colin_porki@RiebvJanbeeck@JonitoMartinsJr The Employment "Equity" (note, not "equality") Amendment Act would beg to differ. The quotas requiring all companies to employ a smaller percentage of white men than the national percentage (or face punitive fines) is race-based discrimination.
@CamWrynn@colin_porki@RiebvJanbeeck@JonitoMartinsJr Just because you don't experience (or realise that you experience) discrimination doesn't mean that white people aren't being discriminated against. Especially white kids, who will not be allowed to be employed in SA except in businesses of <50 people.
@pierredevos@News24 They are spending money given voluntarily.
When will you do investigations into the wasting of money taken by government from all citizens?
@LLB_hard82389@Our_DA > The Bella Act and Expropriation Act was accepted way too easily.
The previous ANC-majority parliament enacted these laws which the DA voted against.
Besides not participating in the GNU, what could they have done, while abiding by the laws and constitution?
@BuddyWells1@GavinMabie So you're saying "local communities will see little benefit from government", but they keep voting for the same politicians.
Thus the problem isn't "foreign companies" ...
@BuddyWells1@GavinMabie > public perception is that foreign companies coming in to extract the oil will result in very little benefit to local communities
Are they ignorant of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Royalty Act?
What benefits do local communities get from oil left under the sea floor?
@mybroadband Quality article:
"There are not a lot of satellites in the air"
I would think counting the satellites in their intended orbits would be more relevant.
And the comparison should be between the number Leo intends to launch with and the number StarLink had when they launched.
@solo1y Many progressive honestly believe that you can remove all incentives for hard work without society losing the benefits of hard work.
Did I do this right?

@Askash > Many countries are declining to build data centres
Weasel words. Please provide concrete examples.
> with the USA lobbying against building them
I think you mean "(possibly foreign-funded) groups in the USA lobbying against building them, using false claims".
@Mtshatshu@Nhleiks5 The problem was the pre-selection of Russia without an above-board bid process to ensure we were getting a competitive price (which we weren't).
@mycarguyza@Recon1_ZA How did the R31m spent by McKenzie and entourage affect the R200m the team earned?
What proof do you have that the R200m is a "return" on a R31m "investment".
Does the tax-payer get back any of the R200m after having R31m spent?
@kldeason@i_likebrandon@Finnthehuman80 If they want to fly first class, they can pay for themselves. If they are doing "government business", business class is sufficient. If they aren't doing any official business, they shouldn't need to go at all, so better not fly better than economy at taxpayer expense.
