This is one of the most fascinating discussions Ive had with Tom. We end up discussing whites and what actually works for whites. The highlight is when we get into the topic of the Confederates and slavery and how the economy made more money when whites owned their own little farms and produced their own goods.

Massive property tax headache for South Africa – the third worst in the world
South Africa is ranked the third-worst country in the world regarding property tax and other associated costs.
This is according to UK-based relocation experts at 1st Move International Removals, who analysed each country’s highest average property tax rates to identify those likely to cost investors the most money.
Overall, Singapore’s property taxes are the highest globally, averaging 35.58%.
The high property tax includes costs such as an extreme 68.45% roundtrip transaction cost on rental properties, making the city-state one of the more expensive places to own property.
That said, Singapore’s strong demand for real estate and reputation as a global financial hub continue to attract investors, even with its higher tax rates.
Belgium comes second, with an average property tax rate of 24%.
This includes a substantial 50% income tax, one of the highest in Europe.
1st Move International removals said that although Belgium’s property market offers stability, the combination of high income and property taxes adds to the investment cost.
South Africa comes out to third, with an average property tax rate of 23.12%.
This is slightly lower than Belgium’s, with the country’s 45% income tax and increased transaction costs presenting challenges for property investors nationwide.
“Despite this, South Africa’s growing demand for housing offers opportunities for long-term investment returns,” said 1st Move International removals.

Worst countries to buy property
The relocation experts noted that Belgium is the worst country to invest in real estate, scoring 2.9 out of 10. The placement is unsurprising, as the government has one of the highest roundtrip transaction costs, at 22.50%.
France came in second place with a score of 3.21, and its corporate tax of 25% is on the higher end compared to other countries.
Greece is in third with a score of 3.76. The country is in the top 10 with one of the highest average rental income tax rates.
South Africa comes in fourth in the global study, with a score of 3.77.
South Africa is on the higher end of corporate and income tax measures.
On the other end of the scale, Lithuania is the number one choice as the best country for real estate investment, scoring 7.10 out of 10.
“Despite real estate prices rising in recent years, investments in this location remain relevant as properties are unlikely to lose value and are a protection against inflation.”

Back in 2004 I posted this article about Orania with my comments. You‘ll see back then I was advocating secession and a White‘s only state.
