Comment: Grouping European social democratic governments with the socialist movement is an equally false equivalence. They are as dissimilar from socialism as socialism is from communism. Equally, the Japanese welfare state is grounded in the Japanese philosophy of service, from the Emperor to the Samurai and down to the farmer. It has nothing to do with socialist philosophy. 

All this socialism/communism nonsense detracts from the purpose of this article, which is to stop white South Africans from complaining about the corruption ingrained in the soul of the ANC.  We should not complain, because OUR government (it is the responsibility of ALL whites, because it was white), was underhand and corrupt and was assisted by other underhand and corrupt whites. We shouldn't complain because we are racists at heart and merely reveal our racism when we do. 

I refuse to accept the current wrongs and leave it to other people to fix. I still have a vote, a voice and a role to play before I bow out..
