Whites don’t lack empathy, they lack capacity

Louis Mielke, Johannesburg

South Africa has 12 blacks to every one white. The ANC government has, since 1994, tried its best to have 12 fully trained, skilled black workers for every one fully trained white worker. Rather than increase the numbers of schools, universities, technical training colleges, and work opportunities in the economy, the government chose to encourage whites to restrict their numbers in these places and in the South African economy. White parents and families cannot “pay it forward” to blacks, as they generally only have sufficient funds to support their own families or themselves. The Jewish community has, as always in the main, innovated to ensure the family will continue to survive. The community also contributes as much as possible to uplift black communities.
