Revolutions have grown out of less — millions of people without salaries are not going to sit quietly, watching elites live undisturbed.

of $1280, and in the US $1200 cheques will be issued to single adults earning $75 000 a year or less. But what happens when the cheque is spent?the immediate need to prioritise health protection for workers, while simultaneously emphasising the need for timely, large-scale and coordinated policy efforts to provide employment and income support.

The hope that this is just a short-term crisis is dwindling. The likely worst-case scenario is that we will have tens of millions of people newly unemployed, underemployed and working poor in our midst after the crisis. They are likely to be more exposed to the health crisis, simply because they don’t have money to pay for tests, medical or protective equipment, or their communities do not have the medical infrastructure.

Hey Cyril, thanks 4 taking a 33% pay cut. Will that affect your R6.4 billion net worth? whatpowersays-whatpowerdoes

That's why the army was put out there 1st.

Yes, we must disturb the elites, so that they can share our misery but nobody's actually any better off for it.

Unfortunately history teaches us that we will choose the path that leads to destruction.... And then a new order will rise... 😎😎

Take heed those who can and those who will?

China should be forced to pick up the tab

Time for basic income grant

Webster_IM A possibility but still a nonsense article. 'ARE not going to sit quietly'? So sure? Are you planning to stoke them up into doing something?

A ticking time bomb. Too many people have now been cut off from earning a meager wage to feed themselves daily. 240 plus die everyday from HIV. Yet not disaster is declared.

SAReserveBank can issue TreasuryRSA a R50 billion per month 0% interest loan to fund a R5000pm grant to SAs poorest 10 million households. As that money is spent onwards & changes hands, VAT & other tax will extract it from supply within 5 transactions.

Sensationalist media article creating unfounded and unnecessary fear and stirring up hatred. You can do better M&G.

harumutasa Nothing changes the rich remain rich whilst the poor get poorer and suffer nothing changes

Again the instigating! Can you please reveal how you came to this conclusion? It is well-known that you desperately need money! Sucking shit out of your thumb might just work! So humour me....

That is true. But the revolution may not be what you think. That sector of the population is all revolutioned out. The revolution will come from white businesses

Honestly at this time , do you think the majority are really that stupid to go for the elite , when they can be focusing on getting food and staying alive . It’s really not about the rich or the poor . This is about us the human race and saving it . Stop spreading FUD.

This is the calm before the storm. We ain’t seen nothing yet. Lockdown riots, theft and looting will result in more deaths than what Corona will cause. You think you are safe in your suburban house? Think again.

Stop spreading FUD .
