INEPTOCRACY:
LONDON TIMES - QUOTE OF THE WEEK
Interesting point of view Affirmative Action: " South Africa is the only
country in the world where affirmative action is in the favour of the
majority who has complete political control. The fact that the political
majority requires affirmative action to protect them against a 9% minority
group is testament to a complete failure on their part to build their own
wealth making structures, such that their only solution is to take it from
others."
Finally, a word recently coined to describe South Africa 's current
political situation.
Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc'-ra-cy)
- a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the
least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to
sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for
by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers.
Oor hierdie stukkie Engelse wysheid wat iemand vir ons aangestuur het, kan ons regtig nie mee fout vind nie.
Die woord Inept word in Afrikaans weergegee as onbekwaam, ongeskik, ongepas, ongerymd, onsinnig of dwaas. Onbekwaamheid kan egter reggestel word deur opleiding. Dit is hier kennelik nie van toepassing omdat selfs die beste van opleiding in al die jare van die Struggle, deur veral die Britte, maar ook vele ander nasies, nie hond haaraf kon maak nie!
Enige van die ander vyf betekenisse sou egter met vrug aangewend kon word. Om egter te sê dat die vestiging van die huidige regime deur elkeen en almal wat daarby betrokke was, ongepas, ongeskik, ongerymd, onsinnig en tegelyk dwaas was, sou steeds in Engelse terme ‘n “under statement” wees!
