Teachers retrenched forced to retire from 2015 in Gauteng raising number learners in a class from 35 to 50. How can it be that anyone argues that too few teachers increases chances of education success? Those in employment are over worked and burnt out.

Investing now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today. The prices aviation is killing us all. The money made is not enough to sort everything out and the family. What we need is a lucrative business or investment. And I just did and very proud I did!!

I like our finance minister. Love his creativity and increasing efficiencies. Management needs upgrading. When a sports team fails, one fires the coach.

Finance minister might end the R350 or force a 1-3% Tax increase 1 november. Hope it gets removed forever. Public Salaries get cut: Top 50% bottom 30% cuts. Security/VIP only 1 per minister. Screw unions they do all the damages that force budgets to be spend on repairs instead of adding new structures creating jobs...
