The ANC has radically transformed the economy. Radical economic decisions, such as the removal of trusted persons from within the Treasury and the state-owned enterprises, have undermined investor confidence and allowed corrupt officials to steal SA’s assets through fictitious contracts. Radical marketing strategies — compiled by a white-owned, foreign company — have ensured that investors will look elsewhere to do business. The radical choice of leaders for our safety and security organisations has ensured that the party’s cadres, who have stolen from the government, are not arrested and charged, despite abundant evidence. The ANC’s success with radical economic transformation can be seen in the lower-than-planned tax revenues, limited capital investment and low economic growth. Sadly, the governing party’s policy of radical economic transformation has not benefited the country, as shown by the number of unemployed citizens. David McCormickCape Town
