CREATION OF JOBS CAN SOLVE THE GRANTS’ ISSUE

The tremendous challenge that faces South Africa is very disturbing if one considers the fact that many people have to rely on government’s grant to live.
Nowadays during month end, young, old and people living with disability stand in long queues to receive grants of their respective abilities. If one can ignore the rest and focuses on young people, this is very disappointing and reflects badly on our societies-especially black ones.
Even though the introduction of child support grant didn’t heed the call for young girls to bare babies like nobody’s business, but a lot still needs to be done about this alarming natality rate.
People still need to be educated about rights and responsibilities.  Some young people will say “it’s my right to do this and that” but never talk about responsibilities. Teenage pregnancy always reflects badly on young women or girls, but we turn a blind eye on people who impregnate them-young men. I think we should preach equal words to each and every gender. Should the above things put into practice, the budget for grants will decrease noticeably and that money could be invested in small businesses and in skills development which will not help only individuals but the rest of the country.
The same can be said about RDP houses. Government builds houses for people, but I, for one I don’t like it. The reason for this is because if government can attract good investors so that there will be creation of jobs this can be thrown out of the window and people will build their own houses.
As for agey and people with disability deserved those houses, not just tiny houses but houses that can accommodate the whole family. There is nothing disappointing than a two room RDP house built for a family of six-how do you explain that?
I still believe that creation of jobs and non-corrupt government officials from their head to tail can be a solution and people will not wait for government to do things for them.
