The Certainty of Collapse

[RE]

The take-away you get from this report is that the reason SA is short of electricity now is because it has been run by corrupt (black) politicians for the last 30 years.  Basically Detroit on the Nation-State scale.  Subtext is if the place was still run by Dutch Afrikaaner colonists with names like Van Der Puke the place would still be lit up like a Christmas Tree.  What the report misses is that going on down the pipe a few years, it won't matter whether a country's political system is corrupt or as squeaky clean as the Ivory Snow girl with fresh diapers laundered in Febreeze, either way they'll be short on Juice.  People here have the false sense of security that our political system isn't run by corrupt criminals like the ANC so we'll be spared the 10 hour daily blackouts.  And it's true our criminals aren't like their criminals.  In the words of F Scott Fitzgerald, "They have more money".  The biz model is the same though.  As Al Capone informed us

Sadly a different kind of stupid is in our future.

"What has been will be again, and what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun."
Ecclesiastes 1:9

Not to disagree, but I'm with the Bible on this one. The same kind of stupid is in our future.

As a Mandalorian might say. "It is the Way".
