Dr. Anthony Turtons current assessment which sadly is too true.

"What shocks me is the rate of deindustrialization in SA.

Remember that just 25 years ago:

- We had specialist entities like USCO that made sophisticated steel used for example in gun barrels;

- We were leaders in oil from coal;

- We were the only producer of steel in Africa at Iscor;

- We made copper cables at African Cables;

- There was more energy concentration in a 100 sq km area in Vereeniging than in any other African country's entire energy usage per hour

- Samancor produced specialist alloy feedstock and Stewart's and Lloyd's manufactured a range of sophisticated products of great precision like pumps

- Dorbyl fabricated heavy engineering components;

- On the military side we were nuclear-capable and on the threshold of weaponizing nuclear warheads exactly like North Korea is doing today.

All of this was possible - and I am not saying it was good or bad to be nuclear-capable - only because we had sophisticated technical capacity.

In two decades that world-class capacity has been lost and raw sewage now floods the basements of buildings.

The collapse has been total and rapid.

The epicenter of the most concentrated form of primary production on the African continent has been wiped out with one sweep.

The country that pioneered heart transplants now breeds new pathogens that are likely to create a health catastrophe of unprecedented proportions.

This speaks to the inability of a liberation movement to govern.

This is a shocking truth that few want to admit.

The army that just 25 years ago produced the most sophisticated artillery, and which was at a stage considered the most advanced military force in the world after Israel and which saw the creation of an attack helicopter equal to the Apache, is now retreating from Emfuleni unable to execute the mission given to it last year."

Cry the beloved country.

Soon SA will be just another African sh1th0le like Zimbabwe and Mozambique, where people hijack bread trucks to get food and where starving children hunt and eat rats.

Just shows how stupid democracy is when it is racially based as is the case right thru the African continent . The planet is in exactly the same position where it's being destroyed by the greed of capitalism and a small group of capitalists in certain industries at the expense of millions .
