Jacob Zuma the mockery of black history
blatant abrogation, obscene greed
the immoral compass.
Absolute insolence in the face
of the state of the poverty-stricken
nation – barely conscious
after Apartheid.
Illiterate rhetoric gestures duty
while South Africa is captured
in an economic melt-down

Thanks for the reminder that plutocracy (and the Chauvinism/nationalism/racism, sickness and death that result) is a global problem. We here in USA tend to forget that. after reading the link and looking at some cartoons there, I’ve bookmarked dailymaverick for further reminders.

It seems a hopeless situation when under the rule of such arrogance and greed. I always wonder how is it that these horrible people end up head of countries. He is one of many immoral compasses out there.

Yes I realise South Africa isn’t a unique case. It just very hurtful in such a young democracy as ours. Our hearts are broken.

So sad when all turns to a battle of power… greed such as that is the worst, and it seems to happen everywhere.

It can be so difficult to watch corruption and political power plays interfere with the bettering of conditions for all.
