BNC#9 | Dawie Roodt: "Incompetent" ANC is the "most destructive force South Africa has ever seen"

Dawie Roodt says South Africa's taxpayers are being squeezed harder than ever, and he has the fresh numbers to prove it. In this BNC#9 keynote, the Efficient Group chief economist walks from 300,000 years of human history to the latest Reserve Bank bulletin to make one argument: the state is spending and taxing more than it ever has, while a shrinking pool of taxpayers carries the load. He explains why he backs a controversial BEE fund idea that a fellow speaker slammed at breakfast that same morning, why he's telling people to legally pay as little tax as possible, and what a Middle East ceasefire could mean for the rand, interest rates and South Africa's growth outlook. He also delivers his sharpest line yet on the ANC.
