But seriously. Look at what "revolutionary" "democratic" governments have done to the rest of sub-Saharan Africa. Can you look at the numbers (not the perceptions) and honestly say that the road SA is currently on is going to get us anywhere good?
Don't you think it'll be a good idea to hold on to at least some sort of prosperity in this country? Inevitably, and given the current events, SA is going to fall into the same pits that the rest of Africa (aptly named "Darkest") fell into.
I don't want to leave. But I also don't want to stay if that means I'm going to wake up one morning with a panga at my throat, or a "previously disadvantaged" individual occupying my job, or with the money in my bank account worthless, or with a police force that doesn't give a shit about my wellbeing.
Yes, my proposal is incredibly drastic, but it's not as if it'll be the first time SA soil has been divided (a la Lesotho and Swaziland) - and it might just work to the benefit of those that actually care about tomorrow, and aren't intent on seizing everything today.

What makes you think the DA is forward thinking, they are politicians?...read scum of the earth.
What have they achieved?. I would be all for secession but dammed if i am going to live under a bunch of "liberal whiners" who are more impotent that a 80 year old man without a Viagra prescription

Hahahahaha...
An interesting scenario. But isn't that what was abolished by joining the 4 provinces together all those years ago... Dare SA go back to that system? ;)
Oh... and you made one crucial error, you say, "People that know what they’re doing … lol" um... The cape doesn't have that :P
