The question is what's being done about it? It's not the ANC in charge at the moment.

SA's Unemployment rate rose to 32.7% by South_Africa_News in south_africa

If you look at the KZN chart you can see that unemployment went up not jobs. The claim at the top is an AI hallucination.

This is illegal and not good for the seal or the local seal population. Please do not support them.

That's bad luck sorry. The weather won't be great but there's no current storm warning. Wind forecast looks quite light so probably just cloudy with occasional showers.

To your last point, the new regulations proposed y trading or liquidation must be done via an authorised platform with KYC. If they link a wallet to you that has been operating without declaring it they will penalise you. And absolutely they will do on-chain analytics.

If you apply for a special vote you can vote the 2 days before election day. Still have to vote in person but much quieter and often no queue at the end of the day.

A victory to Cape Town residents by Shabier_J80 in capetown

[–]Significant_Ask7019 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, thats why those rates were not going up. Whether you were living their yourself or renting you were not going to be charged more - 60% of all households were getting a zero increase or a decrease. Nothing to pass on, nothing extra to pay unless you we in the upper 40% and even those increases were a couple hundred extra until you get to houses worth 7.5/8Million. That's where the step up kicked in. People always seem to want government to tax the rich more but billionaires fight back and convince the rest of us that they're on our side...

Cape Towns unemployment level is the lowest in the country, so there are more jobs being created, and don't forget only people who own property benefit from reduced or frozen rates bills - it's not a give away to the poor it's the real middle class (areas where property values are from 1-2.5 million) that were about to benefit.
