Only your life is cheap

I think everyone is glad that “Day Zero” is now just a “bad memory”, and very grateful for the rain that we had so far this year.

However what we don’t appreciate is that now suddenly, after all the years we are charged for our water meters.

Seriously! Why now suddenly? We are already punished for saving water. Soon we will be charged for the air that we breathe too.

South Africa is by far the most expensive country in the world!

The only thing that is cheap here is your life.
