*EXPOSURE OF THE SHREWD AND NAKED IDEOLOGICAL INCLINATION OF THE DEMOCRATIC
ALLIANCE*
** **
The Young Communist League of South Africa [uFasimba] is not in any way
surprised at the recent exposure and nakedness of ideological inclination
of the chief neo-liberal agent, the Democratic Alliance (DA). The DA in its
support of the controversial Youth Wage subsidy has proved to be an agent
of white minority capital which despite the challenges across the country
and the globe have taken a stance to ensure that they are not labour
absorptive and continue to seek monstrous concessions that will only lead
to a reversal of the gains made by the government led by our movement that
has been elected by the people of South Africa; thus forcing it to have
limited choices in fulfilling its mandate to the people.****
** **
The youth wage subsidy is touted now by the DA and its media allies now as
the only hope to take care of the rising unemployment crisis as it is
speculated to have potential to take some 400 000 youth out of poverty and
get them employed where they will get the much needed experience. However,
what is not being said here is that the youth who have to bear the brunt of
this subsidy will never be the actual beneficiaries of the subsidy as it is
aimed at enticing capital to employ them. Post this employment; capital
will be interested in the new group that has to be absorbed to get new
subsidies that will benefit its profit maximisation aim and thus a creation
of a revolving door syndrome that will see new entrants into the market
being preferred to old entrants into the system. ****
** **
This is just one problem as the system itself will pit the old workers
against the new subsidised army of workers who are vulnerable and can be
exploited without the protection of the rights regime capital has been
complaining of for ages since the advent of worker rights. This labour
modern slave market will not be tolerated by ourselves and it disgusts us
that the youth vulnerability due to socio-economic challenges that are
manifestations of the brutal, exploitative and crisis prone capitalist
system that has seen the growth of wealth and profits that do not relate to
benefits to the whole of society or increased employment as they depend
mainly in the financial growths as we have evidenced in our own country
particularly, and the global situation. ****
The DA has shown its weak moral fibre that is rooted in the exploitative
attitudes that they hold in many issues and have exposed themselves in the
public eye as no hypocrisy as they subscribe to can be hidden. Their
anti-progressive attitudes cannot continue disillusion or even be sugar
coated despite the media also playing a role in consolidating this hardened
attitudes towards instability and disorganising the revolutionary alliance
in its pursuance of transformation in South Africa.****
** **
We fundamentally condemn the instigation of black on black war by the DA
which clearly calculated what was to happen out of its decision to march to
COSATU house; this ploy was just to garner sympathy support for the Youth
Wage subsidy by direct misleading action and neo-liberal lie of equal
opportunity without equal access and benefit. The injuries that followed
were unfortunate but were calculated with intended consequences and we wish
a speedy recovery to those that were injured and the journalists that got
injured at work.****
** **
The recent case is the Public Protector case where they were exposed and
Helen Zille in her true neo-liberal attitude runs to the courts whereas she
makes a lot of noise when it is not her party or its members found to be in
the wrong. Worst of all she had made a commitment to resign and we still
amazed at why she is still premier in the Western Cape and now remind her
that she must resign from her position of Premier due to the corruption;
she should stop coercing the Public Protector with court threats. Whether
the report was leaked does not change the merits of the corruption that has
been uncovered, the corruption in her administration and the contravention
of rules means that she must just resign and stop her bullying tactics.****
** **
The increased intercourse of the chief agent of capital in South Africa
with the imperialists that continue to lead the way of global neo-liberal
oppression are exposed in the push to award Obama the President of the
United States with the Freedom of the City of Cape Town amounts to an
outsourcing of our city which the DA thinks it’s a capital of an
independent republic which they have an illusion of running. Reminder the
Western Cape is part of the unitary South African Republic as this is not a
federal republic like the one the chief imperialist they awarding with
Freedom of the City comes from. ****
** **
There is a constant onslaught from apartheid apologists, white minority
capital defenders and their co-opted members in the academia and the media
against the revolutionary alliance which they would be happy to see
breaking apart. This Freedom of the City they conferring is just another
way of the symbolism they attach to their global integration into the
imperialist outlook that sees our nation as nothing than an exporter of
resources, a market for brain draining and cheap labour; we are not going
to allow all this to happen, we will oppose this neo-liberal sense of
foolish pride with all.****
