BLOOD IN THE STREETS: ECONOMY FAILS AS MILLIONS LEFT WITH NOTHING
While fat cats and bankers talk of “modest strengthening,” a tidal wave of joblessness is DROWNING South Africa. The official forecast is a lie. We are in a full-blown EMERGENCY, with youth unemployment screaming toward 50%—a statistic that means millions of young people have been ABANDONED.
Political economy analyst Daniel Silke admits the truth they try to soften: “We have very high interest rates.” The South African Reserve Bank is choking the life out of ordinary people to protect numbers on a page, while families starve. Analyst Doctor Tshwale warns the government must “up the ante” against its own crippling bureaucracy or watch the nation BURN.
Look at the evidence they admit to: a pathetic 130,000 jobs created last quarter, while the vital engines of agriculture and mining sputter. They call this “momentum.” It’s a DEATH SPIRAL. Silke himself confesses the so-called growth is “nowhere near what it should be.” Your electricity bill skyrockets, your grocery money vanishes, and they have the audacity to debate “limited tax increases.”
Who benefits from this silence? The connected. The comfortable. The political class in their “government of national unity” that UNIFIES only in its failure. Every department, every policy, is FAILING its only real job: putting food on tables. Silke states the obvious: unemployment “should be the absolute priority.” It isn’t. They are choosing to let you sink.
The crisis is no longer economic. It is a lit fuse on a national bomb.
