@IOL Hebanna. Welcome to the puppet show wherein the 1.1 million equals to the number of educated and qualified people unemployed in SA.

Public anger mounts as Finance Minister Enoch Godongwana stated that the R800,000 vehicle price threshold for official vehicles for members of the executive was no longer viable and has been revised to R1.1 million.

@MedvedevRussiaE Knowing Macron has a tendency of changing mind depending on where wind blows . You have a correct point.

@thesiriusreport What ? 🤣😂. Well, UK energy policy express existential fear. Hence, the report about fuel shortages. What do you expect when UK has announced high ambitions to be carbon neutral by 2050. Yet, has zero details on how to do it and no publication has been release on that .

@MzwaneleManyi @IndWorldThinker Wrongly remembering Soweto uprising. Should be remembering on the same day,the arrest of Steve Biko for Black consciousness who rose up against Afrikaans as the lagua of instruction forced in schools. Soweto uprising was just a protest for what Biko was against.

@constantinvonh That is indisputable. The modern world is in the throes of a crisis and unless a change of direction ensue soon, no doubt doomsday is near.

@GeromanAT That is Pasadaran work. The slow will say is launched by Iran army as if Iran army has the control of strategic missile.

@SongezoZibi Tensions with the Islamic world won’t change. One thing certain about Iran is to MIGA (Make Islam Great Again), which is not part of Trump calculus. Whether it change to using diplomacy for the release of war prisoners, that won’t change the tension fuelled by Isreal.

@ThomasSowell It's all about scaming,a scamdemic pandemic. Too bad that voting is common danger that unites the bitterest enemies to be scammed.
English

@ThomasSowell That is an excusable untruth. A wealth without limit is called wealthy and find not opposite to hoarding which is purely making money in excess unnatural. Let me repeat, Hayek was an ignorant failed liberal Australian economist. Better stick with Thomas Sowell for sanity.

@postlaborian @AGDugin Yes, hoping you didn’t mis my saying a given “wrong political right”. Reality based question. When Russia expelled Jews. It expected them to stay where.? Can’t just easily separate Jews from Isreal,from Russian history because of wanting focus to be on Russian colony today.

@LungaMrhetjha Wekhethu. As long inflation exists as hidden tax that pays for nothing at Reserve Bank level.Interest rates,as a monetary policy tool will remain an effective tool for fraud.worsened by countries who keep their Gold in US vaults.wherein,Trump admin doesn’t release audited report.

“We understand better how little we understand about inflation.” - Jerome Powell
When Powell said this, I knew instantly that things were fundamentally wrong. That was a clear confession from central banks that their model is shaky.
For years, the playbook was simple. Inflation was caused by too much demand. And when you raise interest rates, you slow down the economy and inflation drops.
It was clean and predictable. Then one day, this model stopped working properly.
Post-COVID, inflation didn’t behave. It wasn’t just people spending too much. It was supply chains breaking, energy prices jumping, war shocks and logistics collapsing.
So now, central banks are confused because they were busy hiking rates but inflation wasn't responding the way they had hoped or expected. Powell’s statement was premised on this dilemma.
Now if you bring it closer to SA, you realize that SARB still runs the same playbook. It uses interest rates as the main weapon. But the problem is that we don't have "too much demand" inflation. Ours is cost-pushed.
What’s actually driving prices up in SA is electricity tariffs, fuel, food and a weaker ZAR. All of these factors have nothing to do with the consumers overheating the economy.
So when SARB raises rates, it doesn't fix Eskom or reduce food costs. It just makes money more expensive.
This spells more trouble for households and businesses, and job creation slows down.
And that's essentially the contradiction here. We’re using a demand weapon to fight a supply problem.
Powell’s quote hits deeper when you look at SA. Because if the US is saying “we don’t fully understand inflation anymore:, hen what about us, with structural inequality and weak growth?
The fact of the matter is that inflation today is not just about demand. It’s about infrastructure ,energy, global supply chains and market structure. These things cannot be fixed merely with interest rates.
Interest rates, as a monetary policy tool, are no longer that effective. Right now it feels like we’re pressing the same button and hoping for a different outcome, while the real issues sit elsewhere.
Powell didn’t just admit uncertainty. He exposed a gap in the system. And in SA, that gap is even wider.

@Xohi1260 Guterres must be held accountable not just for delaying what many want, a UN that if not deleted,must be redesign for more effective response. All he does is always singing for American funding. Since,UN budget is perennially defunded by many countries behind with contributions.

@Zlatti_71 Boom 💥.looking forward on France de-associating itself from the EU (group of the will for Ukraine war) to continue at the expense of France.A bad reflection will be on Macronism, given should US Trump withdraw from NATO,as deed by withdrawing US military guarantees for Zelensky.

🇨🇳🇷🇺🇫🇷 China, France, and Russia block resolution on the Strait of Hormuz, — NYT
👎 Moscow, Paris, and Beijing opposed the UN Security Council draft resolution allowing the use of force to open the strait.
📌 The clause on "the use of all necessary means" sparked particular controversy. The draft has been rewritten several times; this is its fourth version.
🤔 Earlier, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that the main cause of the situation in the Strait of Hormuz is the "illegal US-Israeli military operation against Iran".

@GlobeEyeNews A fact proven once again which tells,the French don’t have the unambiguous picture that “Iran is bad” and “Ukraine is good” when it comes to rally for national interests. A full proof that minority government does work than a coalition led by Macronism nor the President.

@thesiriusreport Can’t call peace through strength a defending tactic. It’s a disillusionment veiled by diplomatic efforts for flawed peace. Yet, in its true essence, it will never be able to achieve lasting peace between Palestinians and US-Isreal terrorists. Same, between Russia and EU-NATO.
English

The US never had a plan, they never do. They think real life is a Hollywood blockbuster.
Someone came up with a ludicrous idea that killing the Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei would topple the Iranian governmental structural and that would be result in an instant US victory. Anyone with a modicum of knowledge about Iran knows that was never going to happen.
Meanwhile the US can't stop Iran controlling the most strategic waterway in the world. They also are incapable of defending their apparent allies in the region. Iran is able to target anything anywhere in the region and destroy it.

@thesiriusreport That is the power of spy satellite performance,often underestimated. For US-Isreal to catch a wake-up . Await, once Iran put 300kg, it will adapt the satellite launcher into an ICBM that could drop more than 300 kg anywhere in the world for instance,Washington DC.
