This.

Collapse. That's what South Africa is heading towards. It may even be worse than whatever Caribbean $h!thole that you come from.

Sucks to live in South Africa. If they were smart they would burn everything to the ground and get out while they still can.
Scorched Earth would be what I would do.

China will pick up the pieces at fire sale prices and assume defacto control of the country.

I also figured the Chinese government would sweep in. However, Chinese businesses are now leaving (along with the Indians).

Anything that doesn't fit the narrative however is "none of America's damn business!"

best post in this thread.

They better call up Sally Struthers...because in just two or three years they'll be the next starving country.

They'll be able to buy in later for cheap. SA will be begging them to come back, paying them.

Not a good idea, if she decided to keep the food for herself like how she was portrayed in South Park.

Me too!

I don't think we give Aid to South Africa. South Africa is its own country. Most likely we give aid to other African countries.

Africa is the biggest continent in the world. Lots of countries within Africa.

Tourism is msot likely South Africa bread and butter. Many private expensive game reserves located there.

U.S. aid to South Africa totaled $526 million in 2013.

Tourism accounts for only 7% of SA GDP and employment.
