South Africa’s communist redistribution of farmland has been a colossal failure

same thing with capitalism and profits, where is their secret stash of money?

Our new communist government should try something like this here. We could round up all the homeless, the mentally ill, the drug addicts and street blight, and move them to sunny Detroit where homes and parks are waiting for their human touch. Obama could teach them how to garden. Life would be so smiley faced.

So, why does it keep popping up?

To destroy mankind in his pride.

After Mugabe seized the farmland, 90% of it sits idle, with no crops having been planted. The country now suffers a severe famine.

Farming is racist. Trust in the State, and It will provide all that one needs.

It’s bound to fail. Tho communists who received the land from a farm give away are nothing but slackers and losers in the first place. Otherwise they would have found a way to already have their own farm.

Where’s that drug-addicted, booze-bag, tax-dodging, wife-cheating, Limousine Libtard Bono now? Sun City songs? How about dead Afrikaner songs?

You gave the keys to Mandela to protest Apartheid, the cause celebre for the 80-90’s...where are you now, you midget Commie maggot?

Same thing happened in Russia shortly after the Bolsheviks seized power. The communists sacked all the bourgeois people who ran the machinery and departments that kept the Russian large city's infrastructures going. The jobs were then handed to commie followers and flunkeys under the assumption that anyone could do those jobs.

The commies found out very quickly that party members were thoroughly unqualified to operate machinery or manage anything that required technical expertise. The commie leaders then had to give all those jobs back to the bourgeoisie who ran them previous to the revolution.

South Africa was once a proud member of the First World, but now is sliding into Second World status. I remember a decade or so ago being shocked when South Africans I met told me how their nation was going down the toilet. I thought those comments were a result of whites seeing what it is like not being the top dogs anymore. But I now I see what they meant. Socialism is destroying that country.

It will come to pass here as well.

Yes indeed, we have entered the road to decay some time back.
