"City wide cleaning" - THE DA CITY OF CAPE TOWN RIP-OFF

Home owners in Cape Town are being ripped-off by exorbitant property rates and taxes, inflated property valuations and outrageous padding of utility bills, to the extent that family homes have to be sold due to unaffordability.

The punitve taxes on hard work and saving are selective and discriminating.

Shack dwellers are either property owners or tenants on Council land.

ALL shack and home owner should pay towards "City wide cleaning".

ALL or NONE.

It is past time that career politicians get the message.

A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY

More than R 2 billion (R2 000 000 000.00) was stolen ("extracted") by seven "syndicates" from Tembisa Hospital.

We are a better nation than this.

Three; Use the existing Health budget to fund a comprehensive medical aid for every South African, every man, woman and child and go private for healthcare for all.
