(Dawie’s argument) • Europe vs USA: interventionism, productivity, and the Trump shock • The ANC’s blind spot: South Africans are economically aspirational • DA vs ANC: what values look like when you’re willing to lose votes for them • The question that detonates the room: “70% want SA poor?” • The numbers: civil servants, grants, and the collapsing tax base • BEE + the R100bn fund: why it could become “buy your BEE” and end it • 2029 outlook: civil society, SARB, courts, media — and why the next 5 years get messy • The “missing party”: a common-sense centre movement… is one coming?
