Well aren't we a bunch of racist protectionist Bastards?
Just trying our damnedest to keep anyone who isn't white down trodden, broke and oppressed.
Now I'm curious do all of those countries where all of these Big Dollar folk come from, do they have a Liberal education system, or do they have a "Common Core"?

I don't know if you knew but whites, meaning Anglo-Dutch, have been emigrating out of S.A. in droves, during the past two decades. Their primary destination nations are Australia/NZ, US, Britain, & Canada.

OK how come when you talk to Indians on the street, they speak as eloquent as the Duke of Ellington, but when you call them for Tech support you can't understand a damn thing they say?

I have a hard time with tech support too, and a lot of the cold callers who call from India. They however, manage to fix the problem. You would think if you can't understand them, they should not be able to understand you.

Just pay your taxes. I want to make sure my social security is still around when I retire.

Don't forget Charlize Theron.
I'd also worked with a number of S.A. folks, who'd decided to settle in the US, after trying their luck in London. These were all white folks.
Typically, the business center of S.A. is Johannesburg but all over the place, crime's been escalating where even in the posh suburbs, there are high walls, fences, private security details, etc, to prevent home break-ins and carjackings. Not sure about Capetown but Jo'burg is definitely on the slope downhill. Thus, there's a major *white flight* out of S.A.
