Writing for the London Evening Standard, R. W. Johnson surveys the state of play in South Africa. He finds the legacy of Mandela's beloved African National Congress badly deteriorated; tribalism, debt, and corruption characterize today's South Africa.
South Africa is becoming more like other sub-Saharan African countries, less like an outpost of European civilization. Statisticians call this phenomenon a "reversion to the mean."
Johnson sees South Africa's government debt rating headed for junk status. Expect to see a further exodus of South African whites as the death spiral accelerates.
