Nou wat dink julle hiervan
Crime generates millions of Rands for the Government. A few examples:
At least one million home owners in Gauteng alone (one of the 9 provinces in
South Africa) make use of the services of an armed reaction security company
(please note, not a crime prevention force but only one that can react after
you have become yet another crime victim). The cost of such a service is
approx R240-00 ($35-00)per private household per month. A simple
calculation: 1 000 000 x R240-00 x 12 x 14% VAT (Value Added Tax)generates
more than R403 million ($55 million)VAT for the South African Government as
a DIRECT RESULT OF CRIME. Please note that these figures does not include
the commercial and industry sectors in Gauteng.
Another example. A luxury car worth R500 000-00 ($70 000-00) gets stolen.
The thief receives R20 000-00 ($2 800-00)for his efforts. The car owner gets
paid out by his Insurers and replaces the stolen vehicle with a similar one.
Hereby the Government receives R61 403-51 VAT ($8 469-00)on the transaction
as A DIRECT RESULT OF CRIME. Now who gained the most from this crime? The
thief or the Government.
It would be interesting to know how much estate tax revenue the Government
got from the estates from the more than 1300 farmers murdered in South
Africa.
This Government likes to compare South Africa with other countries, but only
when it suits them. In many other countries across the world your security
and safety are covered by the taxes you pay and any other security measures
you take to safeguard yourself and your loved ones are tax deductable.
Now can you see why this Government will do anything within its powers to
safeguard and protect the goose that lays the golden egg. They will keep on
denying crime and wipe it off the table as a mere "perception" just as they
managed to wipe the damning AU report off the table.

Wat hierdie storie van jou sê, is eintlik presies hoekom dit nie in die
hande van enige regering lê om die misdaadgolf koud te sit nie. Dit maak
eenvoudig vir hulle nie saak nie, want die misdaadvorkoming en al die
bedrywe rondom dit, skep werk. Iets wat die nuwe bedeling tot nog toe nog
nie kon regkry nie, behalwe om die staatsdiens kunsmatig op te pomp.
Wat die plaasmoorde aanbetref, pas dit die vryheidsgebonde regerings ook
soos 'n handskoen, want soos alle politici, vind hulle na die verkiesing uit
dat hulle moet begin werk en as hulle dit nie regkry nie, moet hulle iets
doen om die kiesers gelukkig en op hitte te hou vir die volgende verkiesing.
Die maklikste is om oor plaasgrond te skree om die hopelose mense van die
platteland op te sweep alhoewel hulle baie goed weet dat nie eers 1% van
alle reggestelde boere 'n kans het op 'n kommersiële oorlewing op plaasgrond
nie. Die skenk van eiendom aan 'n arm mens, is genoeg om stemme mee te
verwerf. Die plaasmoorde is 'n gerieflike stuk gereedskap om die boere
meer moedeloos te maak en sommer self te verkas van hulle grond af.
Ongelukkig, soos met Mugabe, hardloop breins en 'common sense' nie
vooraan nie. Deur die landbou te vernietig, vernietig hulle die ruggraat
van die ekonomie en dit is iets wat ooit weer sal kan herstel nie.

Die regering se nuutste oplosing vir die crime probleem:
South AfricaSA police still 'too white'2007-2-1 07:13Nelspruit - The
South African Police Service must be below 10% "white" by 2010.
That's according to a confidential report on the latest guidelines for
quotas and affirmative action (AA) in the police by commissioner
Manoko Aletta Nchwe, who's in charge of the service's career
management.
Beeld newspaper has a copy of the report, which is backed by the
national commissioner.
The report says that by 2010, the police service must consist of 79%
blacks, 9.6% whites, 8.9% coloureds and 2.5% Indians.
At present, the SAPS has 156 180 members, of whom 29 401 are white,
that is, between 18% and 19%.
Severance packages
Officers who command the 25 business units in the police have been
warned they must comply with the AA guidelines.
Nchwe says attrition can take place through resignations, moving
whites to other service points and by offering severance packages.
Dianne Kohler Barnard of the Democratic Alliance said it was typical
of the government to ignore the massive crime crisis in South Africa
and concentrate instead on transformation
