Cost of living
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this very important subject. It is no secret that South Africa which we developed as Protestants are going through a face of chaos deliberately caused by the current regime because of their failure to deliver the service they are supposed to do. The main cause of this conflict between the government and taxpayers is obvious corruption, crime and lawlessness. The intentions of the ANC terrorists movement was never to manage the country but abuse their rights because of their religious beliefs ignoring our rights as humans as per the Constitution, Chapter 2, Clause 15.1, Clause 16 and Clause 18! Any educated and experienced legal expert will always compare two case studies and this principle applies to this matter as well. Two different time zones, from 1965 to 1992 and from 1992 up till today! It is obvious that there is no comparison with respect to the problems listed above because our country became a mafia State allowing criminals to manage our people as declared in John chapter 8, the Word of God. This in comparison with the first case study where our foundation was and is the Word of God, very obvious that the freedom of religion lie is simply not working and a total out of date scenario because religion is something from the past which belong to the past. The date in the Constitution, 1913, is obviously not the start of South Africa but 1652 which some humans do not know or are not aware of. The current cost of living, fuel price, energy prices, land and property prices do not reflect reality and are simply not cost effective nor affordable by the ordinary citizens. This widens the cap between rich and poor because of this quoted clause's! The ANC terrorists movement was supposed to be a liberation movement but failed their original promise's to the people of South Africa because of their religious connections to Iran and other religions like China. The current exchange rate a good example of their failure!

Cost of living in South Africa is unbearable this has knock on effects on an already highly taxed labor force. The leakage in our economy is corruption, failed public services, immigration laws, lack of accountability from SOE or Municipality collapse.

As a retired person, everything is going up immensely every year, except pensions. This is unsustainable in the long run

The current officials and staff are totally incompetent in running our municipality. All services have collapsed and we are just expected to cough up for this horrendous mismanagement.

The cost of living plus municipal collapse
The roads are so full of potholes and never gets repaired
They come and do half jobs on water leakages and water keeps running Down the roads sometimes for weeks on end and people are left without water from their taps as well
Escom is another problem as that is also power stations ever so often blow up or catch fire and then there’s no power for days in some instances

Poor stays poor whilst everything hikes up. Our salaries do not increase at the same rate

How can any property be evaluated remote control. A property must be inspected for a fair evaluation. With all the concerns of the present war and the direct impact of it on ordinary civilians, this municipal rates and taxes must be thrown without a doubt into the freezer.

Mangaung Municipality audits says it all. Corruption mismanagement.. Put under supervision for bancrupsey twice.. No CHANGES. PROVED to appointments all money received goes for salaries not service delivery or much needed logistics to ensure services be delivered. We pay private companies and contribute to local neighbour's hood forums to execute services.. potholes. Sewerage probs the rates and taxes should be used to execute. Cost of living is extremely high.

Life is expensive and just getting more expensive by the day. City of Cape Town just adding more and more on our plates. One of theses day people won't be able to put food on their plates with extra taxes when they think it is good.

All increases exceeds the increase of any salary except for the State Enterprises. The cost of living has become unbearable.
