Is there anyone here from South Africa???

Because i would like to talk to a South African about South Africa.

i once knew a guy who was from South Africa.

Hello. I’m from South Africa. Please note, I’m not responsible for the blaring vuvuzela noise at the World Cup games :wink:

With South Africa’s falling population, will a time ever come when the population will be a small fraction of what it is now?

Um, population isn’t falling as far as I know?

Link.

Hello Hard Rain, are you currently living in South Africa atm???

Yeah, I’m in Johannesburg now. I spent the past couple years in the US and UK, but I’m back in SA.

Here are two snaps I took this morning in downtown Sandton, north of Johannesburg. No sign of a recession here!

Thanks for the pics, HR. I have a fascination with South Africa, its history and politics etc, and I’d like to discuss soooo many things with a Misean. Soo where to begin?? I guess I would like to know more about the private security industry there. Not sure if you seen Louis Theroux’ documentary on crime in South Africa, but I found very interesting.

I think that Africa is in fact the closest thing to seeing what a free market would look like in real life. Ofcourse therese government intervention, more so than Westerns nations in some areas with things like BBE in place. Order is emergent, and it will emerge provided that the state doesnt intervene. However because South Africa has a week government at present this has led to a gap that the private sector has filled with things like private security companies and other areas where the government has failed. I think that the government is gaining in strength which is bad for those who want to achieve a stateless society.

Would you agree that South Africa is the closest thing to what a free market would look like??

here some stuff on south africa

I am from but do not reside currently in SA.
