What is your opinion on some of these?

Q: Seems the whole Xphob issue is on everyones tongue... A very, very bitter woman told me the following: 1. She is angry as the foreigners take advantage of all they recieve freely 2. The average tax paying South African is a hard worker, they just wont accept belittling amounts because they also have to pay for water and electricity and many foreigners dont have to, thats why they accept whatever it is they're paid. 3. Monthly lines for child and disablity grants are filled by them when most South Africans dont even get the money 4. ID's are stolen by most who marry people to strangers and open accounts and do fraudulant stuff using peoples ID's 5. There are women from Zimbabwe taking liberty of using the streets with children on their backs begging for money, wheras they would never do that in Zim for fear of Mugabe's wrath 6. Our leaders where there legaly in the past and kept to their camps whilst fighting the "struggle" 7. They should've had a hand in their own current struggle with Mugabe instead of hiding out here whilst Zim dwindled. What are your opinions on any of these points? I still think though, they do not excuse the appaling behaviour thats spread over SA. For one, how are we going to be treated when we go for the AFCON? Which person overseas is going to come down here for the world cup? Do they think we'll still get the flippin honor of hosting the world cup? She camly said: "whats the point? Its not like its going to benefit any of us true Southies as they'll get the jobs for free labour whilst we still pay high electricity rates even in the dark"

A: Oh we were all so blinkered while a war was commencing amongst the poorest of the poor. I think most of us cannot imagine or have forgotten what it must feel like to live day in and day out under pieces of cardboard, plastic sheeting and corrugated iron shacks. Hungry, cold, wet and with no hope for a better tomorrow. These South Africans have to share areas with genocidal thugs from central Africa or from East Africa where it is custom to be a thug fighting for a warlord. West Africans who are the greatest fraudsters in Africa and the people from neighbouring Southern countries who have already plundered their own countries and move like locusts now to SA to repeat the proses.Their daughters, mothers and sisters being raped on a daily basis by some of these thugs. These poorest of the poor South Africans had no one to go to. Their government just make promises thats never fullfilled. Off course these "immigrants" parade now on tv with great indignation and sweet smiles with their fraudulent qualifications and fake papers so that we all must feel sorry for them, but who the hell cared about the poor South Africans in the first place. Shouldn't charity have started with our own first before taking on Africa's hungry hordes. Now we are all shocked by their brutality and anger? The government should have anticipated this a long long time ago, but instead they just pander to the rich and middle class. The poor just have to sort their own problems. Well people, they are for fecking sure sorting them. In the only way they know.
