Implied murder rates for each local and district municipality in the Western Cape + CoCT (by my calculations)

🚨"BUILT OVER DECADES, DESTROYED IN A WEEK"
When a land invasion targeted Cape Town's only legal spinning pitch, even a court order failed to stop it, resulting in R60 million in damages and counting.
It's time to put the Cape First and protect what its people build.
I could not tell you what the best course of action is for the ANC. It all seems rather catastrophic for them. Probably Ramaphosa needs to go tho.

So I have a few results after using the NIDS dataset. The below is a table summarizing the effects among employed South Africans.
How are racial wealth and income inequality affected by age demographics? It would also be interesting to understand the effects of white emigration on those metrics — younger people are more prone to emigrate, leaving an older population behind with more work experience, savings, property, etc.
Also, many young white South Africans leave the country, and when they come back with savings in a stronger currency, racial wealth inequality could increase. I suspect that if this happens on a large enough scale, it will form a spiral where inequality keeps rising and policies to “correct” it become ever more draconian.
Would be interesting to understand the exact impact. Maybe the scale of this is negligible?

No:
Changes in inequality are unrelated to changes in the homicide rate (or other types of crime, for that matter).

Alguém vai olhar nos seus olhos e dizer que a vida dessa pessoa é indigna de ser vivida e melhor teria sido se fosse abortada.
É importante que você mande ela pro inferno até que ela entenda o quão desumana ela é.

🚨It’s time for a Western Cape where historical communities can live in safety, dignity, and prosperity.
- Fed up with your culture, language, and traditions not being afforded their proper respect?
- Futurated at the growing difficulties of finding affordable housing for your family and schooling for your children
- Tired of paying ever-higher rates and taxes and seeing nothing in return
- Sick of poor service delivery?
- Had enough of violence and crime in your neighbourhood?

Does anyone have interesting economic questions about SA that they want answered? I finally have some free time and want to do some casual research.
You could run on this platform in SA and get 7% of the vote.

I don’t know how members of the clergy aren’t constantly an emotional wreck since they see stuff like this more often than we do. It’s deeply moving

📚🕌DID YOU KNOW? Some of the earliest written records of Afrikaans were produced by the Cape's Muslim community, who used the Arabic script.
Known as Arabic Afrikaans (Arabiese Afrikaans), it emerged during the 19th century, when Cape Muslim scholars adapted Arabic letters to represent Afrikaans words and sounds.
Afrikaans was born here, at The Cape!
Wait, so after all the hullabaloo over the DA winning big, they grew by less than 4 points nationally? Not even 25%? Grew less than ActionSA???

How to become poorer as a country, a guide:
• be literally invaded by russia and currently in the middle of a war
• give up nuclear power
• british
Charge them the back pay as well
It looks like the people of Gauteng may eventually get the DA administration they want. But the people of Soweto must brace themselves: the days of dodging electricity payments may be numbered. The DA has made its position clear, you pay for electricity, and if you don't pay for services, don't expect service delivery. That is the kind of administration Gauteng may be signing up for. Be careful what you wish for!
