Discussion
What's the gist of his pitch? MK Party is a Zulu Marxist pro-corruption vehicle for Jacob Zuma's ego. Bitcoin is for enemies, but let's not forget how vile these guys are. In some dystopia where they are in SA government they would 100% steal anything and everything including a national Bitcoin reserve.
he actually surprised me. started off by admitting that he didn't understand Bitcoin as well as his audience, then made the point that our national debt was a major problem and that spending more on servicing debt than delivering government services is a major issue.
it was also impressive to see how many of the talks he listened to and how intently he listened to all of them.
