White Shop: Tigers in the Mud: The Combat Career of German Panzer Commander Otto Carius
He was physically small and often underestimated, but once he took command of his first Tiger he found his calling and worked his way up the chain of command from a lowly loader to company leader. His exploits on the Ost Front became semi-legendary, but unlike some of his more famous fellow Tiger aces (Wittman, von Strachwitz), he survived to tell the tale first-hand.
[Yep, the ship has been torpedoed and let me tell you this: This ship CANNOT remain afloat. This ship has too many problems. It is time for South Africa to end. Check out the chart. What is not here, but which I've seen is the chart of how the country is borrowing ever more and just going into ever deeper debt. DEBT is keeping the country "afloat". WORSE IS BETTER… remember that Whites. Let's go over the cliff into the abyss. That's the path to survival! Jan]
(Bloomberg) – South Africa’s inability to make trade-offs between competing interests is hampering the implementation of growth-enhancing structural reforms, according to Kuben Naidoo, a deputy governor of the central bank.
Extreme inequality in South Africa that persists even after the apartheid system of racial discrimination that disadvantaged the Black majority ended in 1994 means the country doesn’t have a large enough middle class to play a stabilising role in policy making, Naidoo said Tuesday in a web conference hosted by the University of Johannesburg.
This has given rise to policies with multiple objectives instead of primary goals, competing interests and a difficulty to compromise, he said.
“We don’t have the institutional mechanisms in government to make these simple trade-offs, so they are never made,” Naidoo said. “In almost every area of public policy, you have this simple problem.”
Policy paralysis means Africa’s most-industrialized economy was stuck in its longest downward cycle since World War II even before the coronavirus pandemic hit output. Gross domestic product hasn’t expanded by more than 3% since 2011.
Multiple plans
The government has formally adopted five blueprints to boost GDP growth and job creation since the African National Congress won the first all-race election in 1994. However, most of the policies have been stalled by powerful vested interests.
The structure of South Africa’s government renders it “entirely incapable” of making coherent decisions around trade-offs and that’s partly by design, Naidoo, who was on the secretariat of the panel that drew up the 2012 National Development Plan, said. Former President Jacob Zuma “fragmented economic policy making to the nth degree” by creating more and more government departments to diffuse economic policy making, Naidoo said.
Some reforms proposed almost two years ago in a National Treasury policy paper, forecast to lift growth by two to three percentage points and create more than one million jobs over a decade, and the Economic Reconstruction and Recovery plan unveiled by President Cyril Ramaphosa in October to revive the economy after the damage done by the coronavirus pandemic, are only now starting to show progress. These include getting electricity from independent power producers and steps to ease congestion at ports.

Video: JEWS105: Jews are too sly & sneaky for Whites
I am struggling to find a way to tell my fellow whites how utterly sly and sneaky the Jews really are and how often they fool us. They fool us far more than you realise.
