I would understand an argument a black person being excluded from education argument or social programs and so on but the subject is basically a South Africa University graduate being unable to find work in mass. This is a problem of mass unemployment that SA government should be responsible for fixing not a problem of some remains from apartheid not hiring blacks university candidates. This problem exists in the West also but we don't blame apartheid or whatever for it. It is a social mobility question and unemployment question that governments are directly responsible for.
You really don't get it John.
I am not surprised. Mexico is full of Mexicans. From the president to the street sweeper. South Africa is diverse but the majority of the people there are Black South Africans.
Mexico can't find work for its engineers, its doctors, and its professionals that pay enough for a middle-class lifestyle. I am talking about people who speak Spanish, English, and Mayan, and have degrees from La Universidad Autonoma del Yucatán or otherwise known as La UADY. They have good study habits and are skilled to a very high level. They make if they are lucky $10 Euros an hour. Most make $4.
Why do the professionals in Mexico or in South Africa have to go through years of unemployment or if they are employed have to accept abysmally low salaries. Why? Because we are set up as extraction countries. By the international banking and investment class of people and their international organizations and lobby groups. They pay off all the credit and economic people to do their bidding. Since they are the ones dictating international economic frameworks like the International Monetary Fund, and the banking systems? The extraction only countries GET NOTHING.
Here if I am Mexican and take out a credit card? You know what my interest rate is? 79%. While if I get a credit card in Denver Colorado I might pay maybe 13% to 17%. I have a nearly 800 credit rating which is super excellent. I might negotiate to a 11% with much favorable terms. But if I am Mexican in nationality with a professional degree in Mexico? I will be stuck with enormous interest rates, unfavorable terms, and absolute usury.
I can sit here and explain it to you all day. You don't get it because I looked up Estonia, it is a nation with a mixed economy and it is very stable and part of the EU. It has enormous advantages because of it. The Third World nations of Africa and Latin America are slated for being poor, remaining in debt servitude, and blocked from progress. No matter what the fuck the local leaders want. It is economic imprisonment. Slavery was economic imprisonment too. Those people could not be liberated because production would go down. Profit would go down. Banks were the ones in charge of the sale and purchase of slaves. Slave owners owed banks for buying the labor. Banks control everything and everybody.
Jefferson knew that long ago. But I do not know why white naive people who never had to cope with running our nations can't understand how
bad that shit is!
