What's the issue?

What's the issue?

So us South Africans voted the African National Congress Party back into power in the last election. I am so glad that the ANC won the elections, not so glad that the President is back in power, I don't trust him at all anymore, I would rather have MEC Mike Mabuyakulu as Number 1, however I am glad the ANC won because I fear our infant democracy would be severely damaged by a changing of the guard at this stage. If we are going to change the seat of government then let it be at the next elections, I think South Africa would fare better then than we would if it were to happen now.

As the mineworkers strike clings to the choke hold it has on our economy, now affecting not only the micro economic climate but the macro economic climate, we all look to the purse strings and wonder how we are going to make it to Christmas this year.

Speaking of making it to Christmas, which is not so far away, my thoughts turn to the abducted girls in Nigeria. Okay, Christmas will not be relevant to them as they are all Muslim now that Boko Haram has had their way with them, (excuse the terminology) but when thinking of these girls and Boko Haram I have to ask Why? Why is nobody talking about why Boko Haram abducted the girls? Why has Boko Haram been engaging in terrorist activity against the state of Nigeria for some time now?

Maybe it is because of the millions and billions of oil dollars that seem to go missing from Nigeria. Just maybe the rumours of some $20 billion US. Oh no I better not talk about that, the Nigerian Reserve bank minister lost his job trying to find out where the twenty billion dollars earned by the country's oil industry went. And that was just 18 months of the takings from the oil.

Get to the bottom of what is happening with the bucks that should be going to the people of Nigeria and you may be closer to understanding why Boko Haram behave the way they do.

So in an effort to lose my job, because I would rather be a beach bum, I must bring to your attention what the Bank of England alluded to this past few weeks. The truth about how money really works is leaking out to the masses and a revolution, which was alluded to by Henry Ford back in the 1930's when he said that if the American public knew how banking really works there would be a revolution by morning, , might just be on the way.

If that is not enough then add to that the rumour that there is 5.5 tons of gold missing form Fort Knox, a rather large lump of soft yellow metal. Large enough to all but sink the American dollar, and we all know what will happen to the world's economy if that is found to be true. Oooh Ahhh
