The social grant
The social grant was put into place to help the poor. For them to be able to provide themselves with basic needs for them to live by. But this was never meant to last forever it was meant to help the poor until they were able to get back on they own feet. A few years after the social grants were put into place people started complaining saying that the people that are getting these social grants were abusing it because they did not want to work any more but they were starting to depend on the government to give them everything and because of this train of thought it has inspired a lot of people to think in the same way. This year in the address Zuma says "To ensure a safety cushion for the poor we brought social grant increases forward and extended the child support grant to children over 14 years of age." This is helpful but I think more should be done.
Can't the government create a way to teach the young people that are taking the social grant a way to stand on they own to feet instead of throwing money at them?
people think about these things.
