    I couldn't agree with you less....your example references Anglo American, a born and bred South African country. Doubtful they would ever pull out. Sadly the negative stuff always hits the headlines, there is stress in the system, but there remains a lot that still works very well in our country.

    But we are taking this thread way off topic.

    Our economy is the weakest it's been in the last 3 years...however our economy is STRONGER than it ever was at any time besides in this period. Again we are economically the strongest nation in the continent. there are only 28 countries on the planet that have stronger economies. Economies are always in flux; and I highly doubt that the inclusion of an online tax signals the beginning of the end of our country.

    The strongest our economy has ever been was is 2011. 2013 was the lowest point of the new decade and yet was still the 4th highest economic showing we have ever managed. Economic strength is measured in numbers and not in public opinion. If that simple fact escapes you, then I have nothing further to contribute on this matter.

    No ps4 for me in the foreseeable future but I remain positive about the economy maybe after the elections it will settle down.
