South Africa: Far from Optimal but That's Not Saying Much

It is wealth that provides for the needs of the people; and creating wealth is a hard business with the government being the foundation of the wealth creation process.

It is government that ensures that society has a good educational system, good infrastructure, has laws that regulate society in a fair and equable manner, and provides for the moral foundation that encourages harmonious relationship between peoples.

People by nature are wealth creating animals, if government creates a foundation that hampers this godly human gift then society as a whole suffers. In South Africa’s case the society has been hampered by bad government for many years. I do pray that President Jacob Zuma prays to God for the wisdom needed to help him right the South African society.
