Was a well written article. Pretty amazing contrast in the way various people are forced to live. While obviously not great for black people during apartheid South Africa's government really fell apart afterwards.
Hiv infection rates rose from 3% to 18% of the adult population.
Top 10 in the world for murder rates.
30% unemployment rate.
Rolling blackouts.
Afrikaans Paramilitary groups.
Massive organized criminal organizations.
Widespread government corruption.
Recently had the Zuma riots.
It seems to be inching it's way towards a failed state now.
I'm in no way implying that apartheid should not have been abolished. It was terrible. Just saying that the governments that followed were objectively not great.
