An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:

In 1990, 2 weeks before freed from prison, Nelson Mandela said:


"The nationalization of the mines, banks and monopoly industries is the policy of the African National Congress."

"The people shall govern! All national groups shall have equal rights!"

"The people shall share in the country's wealth!"

"The land shall be shared among those who work it!"

"All shall be equal before the law!"

"All shall enjoy equal human rights!"

"There shall be work and security!"

"There shall be houses, security and comfort!"




Mandela could have followed what Hugo Chavez successfully instituted in Venezuela but instead...........


The vast majority of black society is worse off than under apartheid.

People living on less than $1 a day doubled.

Youth unemployment exceeds 50%. About 80% of unemployed young people never had jobs longer than a year.
