Its time the ANC healed the wounds they have inflicted on all South Africans and restored confidence in their management of the Country. They need to align themselves with the need to learn competency and effective governance. Humility and regret should mark the way forward. Sacrifice ideology in the name of service to the people of South Africa. Submit Governance to God and His plan for a stable society.

The economy is too small to support the entire population of SA due to our past, therefore no amount of redistribution is going to ensure enough for all. We need to grow the economy so that there's plenty for all, thus pro business stance is imperative for the long run to achieve this.
Victory ✌️ must be for the people free and fair ⚖️
Financial markets have the right to look after their own financial interests. I don't think the "threats" they make infringe on anyone's freedom.
I'm sure the DA will make great sacrifices and find mutual ground where all parties can get along. They are very reasonable with what they want, they want a country that works for all the people in South Africa, and in order to get that, we need a stable reliable government that governs well. We need unity, not division.

The markets and business are also stakeholders but not voters..their voice in democracy is important anywhere post election as their actions have a material effect but ahoulsnt hold the country hostage hence anc attitude towards them has been skeptical..DA would add credibility and sense of stability with the IFP tagging along to provide a shoring up of the zulu voice to influence kzn voters away from mk.. confidence and supply arrangement would likely provide the needed stability..

I feel like your question about the outsized influence of capital vs the needs of the people is the single most crucial question in politics... when you get past all the pomp and ceremony, fancy titles, promises and slogans... whose interests are really being represented by our political classes..? I would argue history, and ongoing evidence, where-ever you look in the world, capital seems to be the main consideration with the needs of the people being considered, only insofar as they keep being useful workers and consumers
Never a dull moment with Jaime🙌🏾😂
I am from Kenya and enjoys Jamie' s witty analysis.
So how has the ANC's policies benefited the majority of the country so far?
Baba you know 🙌🏾🙌🏾
the ideologies matter immensely simply because it effects the nature of the policies that are made. This will effect all of us, there is no guarantee it will bring total equality in every direction. We need complete coalition in every direction for every province, the ideologies must not effect policies made, because they should be made for the well being of all people not just a single race or culture or religious sect.....

Looks stable, and I see some results, I'll gamble and take a chance. If it looks unstable, but there are results then new businesses will still take a chance, but don't think they'll commit long term. Long term commitment only happens if there is trust.

Bcz as things stand we need a new direction, businesses are saying all these stupid stuff bcz anc was direct less.Which country hv you ever head businesses telling politician wat to do.its only here bcz its a leaderless country. We need someone who will tell businesses tht they must knw their limits.Businesses are here bcz they are making profits not bcz of anc or DA. Businesses don't care how majority stays ,whether they hv water,food or electricity they don't care.Anc,PA,eff and mk must come together and They put Malema as president. The reason I say Malema is bcz he commands and is in btwn mk and anc.Bcz Ramaphosa and Zuma will not agree for 1 of them to lead.DA is trying to fish anc by saying they will let them take all positions. Remember it's the same DA tht was saying anc is corrupt as a whole,so why give them all positions again.They will get them in parliament 1 by 1 and anc will be powerless bcz all black parties will be voting against them in parliament. We will end up wth John as president in 2 yrs time from now.

Excellent watch! I'm proud to be South African. I may not support Zuma and the MK Party but our people have shown an unbreakable level of trust in their own leaders and in their own instincts. South Africans are impossible to persuade through largely Western-sponsored propaganda and exploitative threats.
I do think we can question the control of democracy by financial institutions however can the average and lower class afford us challenging this? When the Rand freefalls petrol hikes up followed by inflation across the consumer goods market. On a population already struggling with high taxes and high cost of living? Inversely a stronger rand encourages investment and jobs and brings income up with potential lower costs?

A poor economy when the government can afford to do less (with less investment and taxes) for the needy but they have a piece of land or would it be better to see an economy grow and get the government to do more with more money in circulation?

See Julius uses China as an example and I agree it’s a good model however China was never a mixed economy reverting to socialist state it was always a socialist state easing to capitalism. The world economy does not take lightly to a democracy having a mixed economy going to purely socialism that’s the reason the comparison is difficult to use. Look at Zim, Iran, Libya any democracy that has moved from a mixed economy to socialist state has not ended well because of the world economy. I am not saying socialism is not correct only questioning the route we want for the general public (all classes). We will stand united as South Africans and face it head on but let us be clear on the outcome.

@Mighti Jamie I recall in a recent show you laughed at any possiblity that the DA would increase its support in this election. If I recall correctly, you predicted the DA to get around 15% of the vote, and yet end up with close to 22%. You also tried hard to convince us that the EFF would achieve 18% and they managed to get half of this - 9.5%. So I really don't trust your analysis as you mocked the DA and yet it is now the strongest party across all metros!

Answer to your questions: Remember, ALL wealth is created in the private sector. The public sector has no capacity for wealth generation (I am, of course, not talking about personal wealth of politicians). When politicians run on policies that limit the amount of wealth the private sector can create (such as BEE, EWC, and NHI), this warrants a negative reaction from private equity because they can see it will be harder to make a profit in the market. This hurts the ordinary person who sees the result in stagnant wage, lay-offs etc. Governments must remember that they need to be friendly with the private sector because the success of the private sector is the only way the people can become wealthier. It is therefore ethically correct because the funds to enact any public policy come directly from the private sector via tax.

I think SMWX does a great job at breaking down politics and aI agree with most of what they say on here, but markets are important in the sense that economic prosperity can allow for better opportunities to create jobs and redistribute wealth. I think the probem the markets have with our left leaning parties is that they propose policies that will severely damage our encomy because (1) the fiscus doesnt allow for them due to the shortcomings elsewhere (think NHS, free education etc) (2) the may impact the rights that allow free markets to function (think land expropriation), (3) SA doesnt have a good track record over the past 30 years in terms of sucsesfully governing SOE's or implementing policies and (4) with our corruption history and governance track record the left leaning policies may be viewed as further opportunities to loot and mismanage

The markets aren't threatening, they are warning. They can invest wherever they like. They will not sell Rands to collapse the currency, they will sell Rands to liquidate it in order to be used elsewhere. They don't want to sell Rands because they will lose money and that isn't the objective of investors. On top of that, are you going to do about the markets taking their ball and going home? Calling their bluff is an option but you may not like the answers you get.

I fully agree with this analysis, by agreeing into a coalition government, with the DA, the ANC will lose a lot of its voting remaining base as that base will see this as a betrayal of the highest order and an abandonment of its core left socialist values. My question is, will it’s tripartite alliance partners (SACP, COSATO AND SANCO) accept such a move, should they so accept it, them too will be viewed as having betrayed the people’s mandate.
At what point was a government captured by a family and faction of criminals ? 2010 , 2011 ?
When I think of this coalition politics I just see a mess. How possible is it to appoint someone that is not politically affiliated at least for the precedency and speaker of the parliament? Then they can play their politics but at least, I think there will be somewhat of a stronger oversight to some extent.
What have the policies of having a minimum wage, worker protections, afffirmative action policies done for South African in the last 29 years? Power plants are breaking, roads are broken, kids are still not been educated, businesses are afraid to employ people becasue they're unable to fire them when they underperform or cause dissention in the work place.We have massive unemployement and should be encourging new businesses to start and limit the barriers to entry so we can have a broader tax paying base contributing to prosperity of South Africa. Perhaps it is time to learn from countries who have low unemplyment and a growing vibrant middle calss instead of beating the same drum where we have disempowering unemployment rate of 33%.
