Untold damage to the economy and your land will be taken – warnings around South Africa’s expropriation plans – My Comments

(:E-:N-:R-AZ:C-30:V)   

[I have said for years that seizing the land is such an important issue that we People should be willing to go to WAR over it. This is total madness. This is communism, and it's anti-White. They want to do in South Africa what Mugabe did in Zimbabwe 20 years ago. That event was the thing that caused me to become active politically because I regarded it as hideous. I still feel the same way about it. Jan]

Business and civil society groups have raised major concerns around the government’s plan to allow for property expropriation without compensation (EWC).

These issues were presented in submissions to parliament’s Ad Hoc Committee to Initiate and Introduce Legislation amending Section 25 of Constitution on Tuesday (23 March).

While some groups – including trade federation Cosatu – showed broad support for the bill, much of the commentary from the business sector highlighted the permanent damage that EWC could cause to the economy.
