Dear Mr. President,

I’m hoping you might maybe be feeling better than your predecessor.

You’ve informed us, the citizenry, how shut to your coronary heart constructing jobs, or employment, is, and I’m obvious you hold had a gut beefy of recommendation from a complete bunch of so-known as consultants.

Reasonably heaps of this recommendation is public knowledge, given to you by opposition politicians, enterprise consultants within the clicking, lecturers and each every so often, mountainous bankers and totally different expansive corporation heads. And continuously talking in billions, a quantity most of us can no longer conceive.

Very, very few, if any, of these of us hold ever created a meaningful job. Politicians handiest know expend taxpayers’ cash. If employment is created by them, it’s at a build to the economy as a complete. Journalists and lecturers, despite the truth that neatly that means, are largely factual regurgitating but every other person’s thought. Bankers and heads of expansive firms are in most cases there attributable to they hold got the correct academic requirements. Mostly, they didn’t find their jobs attributable to they had been right at initiating something, they are there attributable to they are right at keeping something going. They would maybe develop their enterprise by acquisition of something but every other person started.

What that you just might like Mr President is that but every other person. To find and spend them, your, or authorities’s, job is to assemble an atmosphere by which of us want to live. Our pretty nation has the full pure components for this atmosphere. You wish assemble it trusty, tidy and atmosphere friendly. Trusty means a right police power. For this, the police – ladies and men – want requirements, no longer unions. You join the skill attributable to that is your passion, it must be a vocation, no longer a job.

Education and remedy are the an identical, a vocation no longer a job. The relaxation of the civil servants would perhaps well silent be held to account, judged and tested, they would maybe silent be proficient. If this all labored Mr President, that you just might hold an economy that works, that would perhaps well develop and prosper. Now not an ensemble of shanty towns, crime, corruption, unions and waste. From which ‘that any individual’ is working.

Discovering a hundred billion, or maybe a thousand billion billion, is never any longer going to remedy your difficulty. Making it trusty for children to play within the avenue is going to remedy your difficulty.

Come by rid of the clowns within the hats, find rid of excuse makers and above all, find rid of the committees. While you happen to don’t desire something carried out, give it to a committee.

Watch forward, no longer backwards… and I’ll scrutinize you in heaven.

Regards,

Simon The Sowetan.
