RE: Cape Town - No Water!!!

in #life6 years ago

This one is on the African National Congress. They didn't cause the drought but, didn't they think allowing millions of squatters into the area might tax the resources some day? What happens if the fruit producers plants (trees and vines start to die-off from a lack of water).

Over the years have the ANC built more and more reservoirs? Better roads or airports? None that I know of, although I may not be well informed. In fact, I don't remember any leadership at all out of them, like you would have seen out of differently constituted bodies of legislators in the past. Wanting to rule and ruling efficiently and effectively are two different things. The output of Nationalist Governments may not have been fair to South African society, but the output of the ANC is dangerous and even fatal, not only to individuals but to organized society as well.

I agree with you! They have totally failed in this matter! Politics must be kept aside during such measures!
It is actually astonishing to learn that the rich can still dig boreholes for them as there is no restrictions regarding the same! As digging boreholes is quite expensive only rich could afford it and not everybody. Water is a necessity and everyone should have equal right! Poor and rich alike!
