ANC doubles-down on destructive pension & NHI threats and we discuss classical liberalism!

Loading player...

Join this conversation with Big Daddy Liberty, and IRR analysts Terence Corrigan and Marius Roodt, as week look at the weekend developments by the ANC which took aim at using your pensions to fund Eskom, SAA and other debt-ridden SOEs.

We talk about how to stop it, and how the IRR efforts have been to get your pension fund manager to fight on your behalf.

We also talk about the NHI again, and what you can do to resist this bad policy proposal.

The discussion ends with looking at who we are as Classical Liberals. Are we "white supremacist" and "alt-right" as our opponents would have you believe?
