Subject: What is to be done?
Comrades i appreciate your positive response on my input in this political
discourse and Mangaliso indeed i wont mind the lifestyle audit on me, as long
as it will be both independent and objective.
Apartheid has collapsed, the 96' class project rose and fell out of power
however we should be carefull dat it has not left a contimnation which will
spread like flu and destroy the very same soul of the people, the soul of our
movement. Furthermore, i would agree with point that we must go back to basics
but a problem becomes that as comrades we have become somewhat selective of
what we listen to and to whom do we listen. It has become a trend of this
current epoch. These tendencies and disparities are directly or indirectly
interlinked with the crass accumulation of economic wealth.
On that note of the economy, comrades i am really interested in understanding
why was the economy not forming part of the negotiated settlement because i
really want to believe that if nationalisation happened at that time we would
not be in this situation of disagreeing on the very essence of our revolution
and maybe SASCO would not be in the streets, the students at UJ would still be
in class and not worrying about any fees or whatsoever.
Furthermore, coming to this issue of NATIONALISATION i really believe that
should have happened along time ago however this not the case and what is to be
done?
1-Nationalisation is in my view a principle issue
2-We should not be selective of what to Nationalise[the reserve bank,the
commercial and private banks, ALL THE MINEs and to some extent the farms], thus
we will be able to direct the economy to a better life for all
3-ensure mass participation on this whole issue
4-nationalize through the government, the will of the people
5-let us not fear investor confidence it is an idle threat and on the case of
some of these indebted entities, comrades debt is built into the monetary
system, unless we capture the reserve bank we shall not be able to change the
modern money mechanics
6-with regard to the skill to mange all these entities, comrades we shall teach
ourselves in the line of fire.
THE 1944 GENERATION BROUGHT FREEDOM IN THEIR LIFETIME OURS THUS BECOMES THAT OF
'BRINGING A BETTER LIFE ALL IN OUR LIFETIME'
Yours in persuit of what is to be done?
