Werkloosheid onder swart jeugdiges neem toe

‘n Verslag deur die Raad vir Geesteswetenskaplike Navorsing het bevind dat werkskeppingsprogramme nie veel uitgerig het nie, het RSG berig.

Dié programme was nie doeltreffend genoeg om groot getalle werklose jeugdiges op te neem nie.

Die verslag oor die Aanbod en Aanvraag van Vaardighede is deur die departement van hoër onderwys en opleiding aangevra.

Dit het onder meer ook bevind dat 15 mijoen mense in Suid-Afrika tans werk het, en 7,5 miljoen wat wel voorheen gewerk het, tans nie werk het nie.

Werkloosheid onder die jeug is veral hoog en neem toe.

Ten spyte daarvan hou die ANC-regime vol om arbeid te duur te maak met plaasarbeiders wat reeds byna R3000 per maand verdien en daarmee saam dikwels ook gratis behuising en elektrisiteit ontvang.

Die minister van Arbeid Mildred Oliphant, meen egter dat dit ‘n “morele” besluit is om akute werkloosheid te help skep deur ongeskoolde arbeid te duur te maak, want die “lewenskoste raak hoër”.

Van al die onproduktiewe mense in Suid-Afrika, is negentig persent swart.

Die graderingsagentskap, Standard & Poor’s sê intussen die druk op die Minister van Finansies hou ‘n risiko in vir die land se beleggings-kredietgradering.

Die agentskap se besturende direkteur vir Afrika suid van die Sahara, Konrad Reusson, sê hulle verwelkom die teikens wat die Nasionale Tesourie gestel het.

Reusson het gewaarsku teen die druk op minister Pravin Gordhan by ‘n bankkonferensie in Johannesburg waar hy as spreker opgetree het.

Die agentskap het Suid-Afrika se trippel B gradering in Junie op ‘n negatiewe vooruitsig gelaat.

Maar Gordhan het voorheen verkiesingspraatjies die skuld gegee vir die land se ekonomiese vooruitsigte en in Junie gesê hy sal werkskepping bevorder.

Onder sy leiding is dit kennelik nie besig om te realiseer nie.

    Te veel teel lei tot te veel mense lei tot te veel werkloosheid as die telge groot word. Dit lei tot te veel toelaes wat die staat betaal wat weer lei tot te veel teel….. SO karring die siklus aan.

    En nou dat Opec brandstof gaan inkort, gaan ons wat brandstof gebruik om ekonomies by te dra, erg geraak word. Die staat wat brandstofbelasting gebruik vir sy welsynstoelae gaan miskien bietjie wen, maar die ekonomie gaan ly. Dus, nog meer werkloosheid en nog duurder kos. Die goue gans is stadig maar seker besig om te vrek.

    Die mense raak meer en die koek raak nie veel groter nie. Die Swart studente protesteer en die Blankes leer, geen wonder dat die swart jeugdiges nie werk kry nie. Swart besigheid manne in Namibia soek blankes om in bestuurs posisies en in finansiële departemente te werk. Ek wonder waarom dit so is? Vertrou hulle nie hulle eie mense nie?

    Werkskeppingsprogramme is programme wat witmense uit die arbeidsmag elimineer ten einde geleenthede vir “benadeeldes” te skep. Die ongeluk is dat die “benadeeldes” nie die bevoordeling van hierdie eliminasieprogramme kan benut deur die resultate te lewer wat van hulle verwag word nie en self dus geen nuwe werksgeleenthede skep nie. Daarom praat ons eintlik van doodloopprogramme.

    Zuma se oplossing is om die BEE verantwoordelik vir die inkrimping van die ekonomie, net verder uit te brei na sy onbevoegde en onwillige volksgenote. Die nie-volhoubare (eintlik vet-op-die-vuur-gooi) situasie stuur af op ‘n onvermydelike nasionale ramp wat net ‘n datum soek wanneer om plaas te vind, en ‘n plek om te begin. Daar is geen polities-korrekte meganisme wat dit kan stuit nie, en die sogenaamde studente betogings behoort selfs die verstand-gestremde liberale oor te beweeg van hul huidige toestand van ontnugtering na ‘n toestand van realiteitsbesef. Selfs al was dit nie so onder die bose blanke regime nie, wil elke inboorling ‘n graad verwerf sonder om eksamen te skryf, en wat hom ook nie ‘n sent kos nie. Daarna wil hy ‘n “job” hê waar sy inkomste ook nie aan sy prestasie gekoppel is nie, en sy wanprestasie bloot as rassisme deur blankes teen hom afgemaak word.

    Die onbevoegde “demokraties verkose” ministers kan maar aanhou om onpersoonlike redes as oorsaak van die ellende aan te voer asof dit maar blote toevallighede is, maar “lewenskoste te duur” is maar simptome van boere wat van plase verdryf en vermoor word, industrië wat tot vernietiging gestaak word deur ‘n werksmag wat reeds nie op internasionale vlak kan meeding in vaardighede/vakmanskap nie, onbewaakte landsgrense wat leegleërs in hul miljoene die land laat instroom, asook ‘n regering waar korrupsie geen perk het nie wat beleggingsvertroue vernietig. ‘n Wenresep vir volslae ellende!

    Ironies genoeg sien ek derduisende soorte werk rondom my. Ek praat nie noodwendig van onkruid uittrek (waaroor ek elke oggend my amper doodval) hier in die windverwaaide wêreld nie (Werk vir Water, Werk teen Indringerplante, iemand?). Ek praat ook nie noodwendig van 5 miljoen bome in die Noord-Kaap en elders gaan plant nie (die staat is mos besorg oor klimaatsverandering, dan nie?).

    Kom ons kyk na byvoorbeeld taal alleen, die grootste allemansbesit waaraan iedereen kan meedoen: Ek kyk na woordeboekmakery en voorsetselwoordeboeke in Afrikaans en ander Afrikatale wat tot stilstand geruk het (daar is 7000 tale daarbuite wat verower kan word, laat staan nog die programmeer- en ander kunstale), miljoene wetenskaplike boeke moet nog vertaal word; ek sien programmeringstekorte aan taalprogramme wat verder moet strek as blote beginnerspakkette, verouderde grammatikahandboeke wat hersien moet word; ek sien volgens Google Trends is daar ‘n tekort aan belangstelling in buitelandse tale (en uitruilprogramme om groter handelsbande te smee – dit vorm immers deel van beleggersvertroue) in Suid-Afrika; orals waar ek gaan is daar net ruimte vir vernuwing en innovering en verbetering. Dit wil my voorkom of mense nie kan insien dat jy “volumetries” moet ontwikkel nie: dit gaan oor wat jy met jou vaardighede kan doen en hoe jy jouself nog verder kan verbeter, soos ‘n maatemmer wat moet oorloop van kundigheid. Maak hom vol!
    Een mens alleen kan nie alles doen nie. Vir elke produk wat jy skep, skep jy werk vir tien ander om daarop te verbeter. Die wetenskap verouder deesdae blitsvinnig, nuwe gevorderde vrae duik op, die mark soek al hoe meer doeltreffende, ingewikkelde en allesomvattende antwoorde (wat dikwels teruggaan na Adam toe) in ‘n kits, want die werk moet klaar.

    ‘n Verdere probleem is die studente wat nie baie uiteenlopende vakrigtings inslaan nie. Almal neem dieselfde graad om dieselfde werk te doen, sodat daar ‘n markoortolligheid ontstaan.

    Volgens die Wêreld Ekonomiese Forum het Suid-Afrika vasgehaak op “Efficiency”-probleme, met innovering wat in die steek gelaat word. Hoe daardie geld voor 1994 so netjies aangewend is (met duur oorlogsuitgawes en al), kan natuurlik verklaar word: die deursnitmens kon hoegenaamd nie rojaal leef nie, want die salarisse was karig en die belasting hoog en die rentekoerse uiters wisselvallig. Maar die geldbesteding was beslis beter as vandag aangewend: ‘n Groot som geld is veral destyds belê in innovering en opberging van bv. olie om internasionale oliepryswisseling in Suid-Afrika te temper. Ek dink die staat van destyds het ook die stelling gehad: al is daar geen MASSAverbruik van Produk X nie, laat dit net daar wees in die boekrak/stoor/opbergingsplek as iemand eendag daarna soek.

      Alles is besig om te verander weens die tegnologiese revolusie!

      Lees Robert Goldman’s FUTURE PREDICTIONS

      Daleen Rittmann shared Robert Goldman’s post.

      FUTURE PREDICTIONS:
      In 1998, Kodak had 170,000 employees and sold 85% of all photo paper worldwide. Within just a few years, their business model disappeared a…nd they went bankrupt. What happened to Kodak will happen in a lot of industries in the next 10 years – and most people don’t see it coming. Did you think in 1998 that 3 years later you would never take pictures on paper film again? Yet digital cameras were invented in 1975. The first ones only had 10,000 pixels, but followed Moore’s law. So as with all exponential technologies, it was a disappointment for a long time, before it became way superior and got mainstream in only a few short years. It will now happen with Artificial Intelligence, health, autonomous and electric cars, education, 3D printing, agriculture and jobs. Welcome to the 4th Industrial Revolution. Welcome to the Exponential Age.

      Software will disrupt most traditional industries in the next 5-10 years.
      Uber is just a software tool, they don’t own any cars, and are now the biggest taxi company in the world. Airbnb is now the biggest hotel company in the world, although they don’t own any properties.

      Artificial Intelligence: Computers become exponentially better in understanding the world. This year, a computer beat the best Go player in the world, 10 years earlier than expected. In the US, young lawyers already don’t get jobs. Because of IBM Watson, you can get legal advice (so far for more or less basic stuff) within seconds, with 90% accuracy compared with 70% accuracy when done by humans. So if you study law, stop immediately. There will be 90% fewer lawyers in the future, only specialists will remain. Watson already helps nurses diagnosing cancer, 4 time more accurate than human nurses. Facebook now has a pattern recognition software that can recognize faces better than humans. By 2030, computers will become more intelligent than humans.

      Autonomous Cars: In 2018 the first self-driving cars will appear for the public. Around 2020, the complete industry will start to be disrupted. You don’t want to own a car anymore. You will call a car with your phone, it will show up at your location and drive you to your destination. You will not need to park it, you only pay for the driven distance and can be productive while driving. Our kids will never get a driver’s license and will never own a car. It will change the cities, because we will need 90-95% fewer cars for that. We can transform former parking space into parks. 1.2 million people die each year in car accidents worldwide. We now have one accident every 100,000 km, with autonomous driving that will drop to one accident in 10 million km. That will save a million lives each year.

      Most car companies may become bankrupt. Traditional car companies try the evolutionary approach and just build a better car, while tech companies (Tesla, Apple, Google) will do the revolutionary approach and build a computer on wheels. I spoke to a lot of engineers from Volkswagen and Audi; they are completely terrified of Tesla.

      Insurance Companies will have massive trouble because without accidents, the insurance will become 100x cheaper. Their car insurance business model will disappear.

      Real estate will change. Because if you can work while you commute, people will move further away to live in a more beautiful neighborhood.

      Electric cars won’t become mainstream until 2020. Cities will be less noisy because all cars will run on electric. Electricity will become incredibly cheap and clean: Solar production has been on an exponential curve for 30 years, but you can only now see the impact. Last year, more solar energy was installed worldwide than fossil. The price for solar will drop so much that all coal companies will be out of business by 2025.

      With cheap electricity comes cheap and abundant water. Desalination now only needs 2kWh per cubic meter. We don’t have scarce water in most places, we only have scarce drinking water. Imagine what will be possible if anyone can have as much clean water as he wants, for nearly no cost.

      Health: There will be companies that will build a medical device (called the “Tricorder” from Star Trek) that works with your phone, which takes your retina scan, your blood sample and you breathe into it. It then analyses 54 biomarkers that will identify nearly any disease. It will be cheap, so in a few years everyone on this planet will have access to world class medicine, nearly for free.

      3D printing: The price of the cheapest 3D printer came down from $18,000 to $400 within 10 years. In the same time, it became 100 times faster. All major shoe companies started 3D printing shoes. Spare airplane parts are already 3D printed in remote airports. The space station now has a printer that eliminates the need for the large number of spare parts they used to have in the past.

      At the end of this year, new smart phones will have 3D scanning possibilities. You can then 3D scan your feet and print your perfect shoe at home. In China, they already 3D printed a complete 6-storey office building. By 2027, 10% of everything that’s being produced will be 3D printed.

      Business Opportunities: If you think of a niche you want to go in, ask yourself: “in the future, do you think we will have that?” and if the answer is yes, how can you make that happen sooner? If it doesn’t work with your phone, forget the idea. And any idea designed for success in the 20th century is doomed in to failure in the 21st century.

      Work: 70-80% of jobs will disappear in the next 20 years. There will be a lot of new jobs, but it is not clear if there will be enough new jobs in such a small time.

      Agriculture: There will be a $100 agricultural robot in the future. Farmers in 3rd world countries can then become managers of their field instead of working all days on their fields. Agroponics will need much less water. The first Petri dish produced veal is now available and will be cheaper than cow-produced veal in 2018. Right now, 30% of all agricultural surfaces is used for cows. Imagine if we don’t need that space anymore. There are several startups that will bring insect protein to the market shortly. It contains more protein than meat. It will be labeled as “alternative protein source” (because most people still reject the idea of eating insects).

      There is an app called “moodies” which can already tell in which mood you are. Until 2020 there will be apps that can tell by your facial expressions if you are lying. Imagine a political debate where it’s being displayed when they are telling the truth and when not.

      Bitcoin will become mainstream this year and might even become the default reserve currency.

      Longevity: Right now, the average life span increases by 3 months per year. Four years ago, the life span used to be 79 years, now it’s 80 years. The increase itself is increasing and by 2036, there will be more than one year increase per year. So we all might live for a long long time, probably way more than 100.

      Education: The cheapest smart phones are already at $10 in Africa and Asia. Until 2020, 70% of all humans will own a smart phone. That means, everyone has the same access to world class education.
