A sobering thought
RSA Income Tax Explained
OK, I have decided to put a South African spin to an old story so Blacks can
understand what happens to taxes, tax cuts and what happens when Whites
leave.
Suppose there are ten men who go to dinner every night. Six of them are
Black, one Coloured, one Indian and two Whites. The one White guy is
middlecla** and the other is rich. If they paid their bill the way we pay
our taxes, it would go something like this:
The bill comes to R1000, but four Blacks pay nothing, they eat for free
every night. Two Blacks pay a share of R20 and R30 each. The Coloured guy
pays R100, the Indian pays R150, the middle cla** White guy pays R200 and
the rich White guy pays R500.
Everything went well. The ten men ate happily every night until one day the
restaurant owner said that they were such good customers he was going to
give them a break so he reduced the bill by R200. (In tax language a tax
cut).
So the first four Black guys were basically unaffected by this and still ate
for free, but the six others started thinking about how they would split the
R200 cut in the Bill so everyone would get his fair share.
R200 divided by six would mean R33.33 each. But if they subtracted that from
everybody's share, then the two paying Blacks would end up being PAID to eat
their meal. So the restaurant owner suggested that it would be fair to
reduce each man's bill by roughly the same proportional amount, and he
proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.
So the first paying Black guy that night only had to pay R16, the second
paying Black guy only paid R24, the coloured guy paid R80, the Indian guy
R120, the middlecla** White guy paid R160 and the rich White guy paid R400
instead of his usual R500. Each of the original six paying ones were better
off than before. The first four Black guys still got their meal for free.
But once outside the restaurant, the men began to compare their savings. The
first paying black said he only got R4 from the R200. The second Black guy
said he only saved R6. The Coloured and the Indian guys were a bit grumpy
that they only got R20 and R30 off their usual bill, but otherwise they were
happy that they paid less that night.
Wait a minute, yelled the first four Black men in unison, We didn't get
anything at all. The system exploits the poor!?
The Blacks looked at the middle cla** White guy who got R40 from the R200
discount and the rich White guy who got a wopping R100 and they became
bitter about it. So the six Blacks surrounded the two White guys, beat them
up and stole what they had on them.
The next night the men met again for dinner, but noticeably absent were the
two White men who decided to go to another restaurant and not eat with them
anymore. At first nobody missed the two White guys and they all sat down and
ate without them, but then the bill came and to their horror they discovered
that they were now R560 short of paying their bill. Imagine that!
And that, dear fellows, is how it works when you tax White people to death,
beat them up and steal from them. They will just not show up at the table
anymore and will just decide to go have dinner somewhere else, which means
that you will be on your own and will have to pay all the bills yourself and
there will be no more free lunches, you will catch rats and scratch in
dustbins just like in Zimbabwe after the Whites have left.
So...it has nothing to do with race?? What stupidity. This is South Africa, EVERYTHING has to do with race. How can the inhabitants of this land NOT be racially charged given the history of injustice and atroceties that have occured in the past?
The above is an email that i recieved, not surprisingly from a white collegue who probably expected me to smile and nod in agreement upon reading this load of drivel. "Oh, he is an educated black, and he speaks well so he understands that the rest of these monkeys cant survive or take care of themselves without us white people to save them from themselves".
You are a FOOL if you dont believe that this email reflects the sentiment of most, if not ALL white South Africans who are PRIVELEDGED enough to live in this country.
They honestly believe that we are incapable of taking care of our own, despite the fact that buffons like Malema are running amock on international television scaring 'potential investors' from coming into the country.
I am no Malema supporter. I actually think that he is a dick. And the only thing that he is good for, like AA suggests, is the fact that he can stand up to the white international community, and say whatever the f*** he wants. Whether it makes any sense at all or not. And that is something that i can respect him for.
For too long, black leadership has been at the mercy of the white international community. And just looking at history, ALL of our vocal african leaders who have seen through the cloak and daggers bullshit, and have risen to challenge the oppressors have either been killed, silenced, arrested or made to look demented or incapable of doing anything at all.
Personally, i say f*** white people, and f*** the west. Thats what china said, and they are now the worlds number one economy. And guess what?? They did it WITHOUT the whites, and without the west. And the west had no excuse to run up on the chinese and start a war on some who has got the biggest dick shit, because they know, that right now, as i type this, China has a gps guided missile aim directly and president Obamas left testical, and knowing the chinese, that shit is about as accurate as 0.000001 to the meter.
I divert. f*** the white people of SA, and the next country. We needs to f*** with the emerging world. The east. They can all take their shit, and f*** off to Australia.
Malema is a dick.
