Come With Me To Rainbow Land

in #life5 years ago

Come one come all,

The Jespers, the Jestitute, The Poor and the downtrodden, follow me to rainbow land! Where unicorns are made of fudge and cotton candy and everything is free! South Africa is known as the rainbow nation because of our multiracial or multicultural country. Apart from my feelings, that race is a dumb definition of people I get that there are so many different heritages that make up this braai loving nation of ours.

Yesterday we were asked to vote? For what? For who? I honestly don't know! I would rather you take away my vote and my public holidays and just stop taxing me. I'd rather have no vote than vote for the person who is going to take a portion of my earnings to misuse them or worse never have it see the light of day.

Vote for change

The famous rhetoric among political parties is that a vote for the opposing party is a vote for change, a common misconception accepted by the people. When political parties refer to change they don't mean "an act or process through which something becomes different." they mean change as in the scraps of cents that the rest of us will have to fend off of as they suck the middle class dry as they claim to give us basic services we could efficiently give ourselves and divert wealth to the poor yet South African's are poorer than ever.

Rainbow land is a fictitious place

Preferably for ages 8 and under. That's why our education system is so poor, to keep us at an age 8 reading level so we can't understand that poop is being put in our eyes. The only reason you're seeing the world through rose coloured glasses is because you have the worst case of pink eye.

A change of party is an illusion of change but the system remains the same. Big government was never meant to last, it's a legacy concept which we carry with us as a crutch. Society is the biggest hypochondriac feeling they are so ill that they need these crutches to walk, when in fact letting go of it would mean we could run, run the world the way the people see fit.

Lean to clean up after yourself

We always say the country has problems, the country is a concept with some random ass borders someone drew a long time ago, slapped an anthem on and a flag and called it an identity. The country has a whole lot of individuals that have problems and can't think to do anything about it. We need to stop always looking outward and look inward, how can you make your own life better, if everyone did that, trust me it would be a lot better.

We've survived racism, national blackouts, drought, junk status, listeriosis, that one-time Joburg had a mini earthquake and Steve Hoffmeyer. But surviving is not enough, when are we going to thrive?

Yes I love my country, yes I'm patriotic but I'm not idiotic.

Have your say

Do you live in Rainbow land? Do you want to live in Rainbow land?

Holla at me in the comments! All my commenters I will now refer to as Jessie. Jessie is a good friend of mine, but Jessies got a girl, and I want to make her mine.

So have at it my Jessies! If you don't have something to comment, simply comment "I am a Jessie."

Indeed! It’s a global epidemic this trickle up system is only kept going due to the way funds are distributed which is why I believe so much in crypto being a breathe of fresh air

The only people who found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow are the corrupt, greedy handful who forgot their own commitment to those who voted them in! We all know this it is now history....

Next up, in 'this day and age', who needs so many kings, queens, tribal leaders, people deemed to be leaders (being paid by the people), have we forgotten we live in a democracy.

Rose tinted glasses need to be removed, people wish to own their homes in areas they feel would be beneficial to their families, not always in tribal areas.

Perhaps it is time to embrace our history, the wrongs don't make right, also right does not always make it wrong either....

Personal gain always comes at a cost, promising and providing free things also comes at a cost! A nanny and welfare state where big daddy government must provide just seems so silly to me! Politics are just one big blame game! It’s time and energy we will never get back we could put to good use somewhere else

A lot of rethinking is needed, helping in grant payments is one thing for the elderly or disabled, able bodied people should not stand to gain financially, especially by having lots of children...

Remove the 'blinkers' and find qualified people for positions, so much to do! Blame game has become stale with politicians throwing accusations around, time to pick up a broom and actually learn how to sweep....

i actually read that zilla used to be an apartheid activist! Now lookn at her!

Lol voting is a sham. It’s one of the last ways that they can make a pathetic attempt at saying people have power, and matter. Our votes don’t matter, and they certainly don’t change anything.
Rainbow land is a cute place, full of butterflies that are getting slaughtered by their lack of concern for the environment due to the money padding their ass from the agro companies. Don’t be concerned! The government has your absolute best interest in mind! You can count on them.........

While governmental Marxism sounds pretty awesome, so many people are just completely dependent on those bodies telling them every aspect of life that people would literally go nuts without them. I think it would be fun to watch honestly, combination of the media mouth pieces having a psychotic episode complaining about how government is the most important thing in the entire universe and must be brought back!!!!!!! To the people who can’t get out of their own way without being told. So many don’t understand that we would get along just fine without it all. The average person doesn’t interact with them at all.

Indeed Marxism works great if you’re 5 people and you all agree on it but just being subjected to it from birth meh seems like a raw deal

I agree the average person never comes into contact with them so what’s their real purpose to serve a few companies that live off government tenders and funding to provide civil services we could sort out ourselves

I mean I would at least like the option to say hey can I go live somewhere with no government and see how it goes! If I don’t like it I can come back if I like it you got rid of someone who doesn’t want to be in your system!

It would be nice to have that choice
