A step closer to what Zimbabwe became, IMO. And that didn't turn out especially well.

Go back a couple of decades amd there were two camps in SA:
1. Get out while you can. This place is going to go to the dogs. Where did I put my passport?
2. Don't worry. We'll not let South Africa go the way of Zimbabwe. You're a traitor if you leave.

Time has shown that the former lot were right.

Rather a "traitor" living in a foreign land, than dead in your own.

Appreciate the clarification on this.
However, Zimbabwe didn't go the way they are immediately either.

Having numerous family members back in SA (not to mention friends) who have been victims of crime of a very "New South Africa" sort - you don't need me to spell this out - I think that the former lot were still right to get out. Those who don't agree probably haven't been victims yet.

Yes, this is opinion. But opinion on which I shall not be swayed.
