True, and I agree although we struggle a bit with the fresh meat issue. I love tender and juicy meat, but some days the stuff that we get here tastes like rubber.
They say that we make a plan, and then life happens. !LOL

True. Meat is such a strange thing here in SA. Everyone wants to braai and consume as much meat as possible, yet few people support local butchers doing better jobs than any of the chain shops. Now only chains run meat sales and even though sometimes good quality, most of the time you really need to search to find something good.
Such a shame really, because we always had so many butchers, even though I am still part of the younger generation, I remember all of the butchers in our area.
Always, our plans never really happen like life happens right!
Yep, I agree with you, and another worry is that most of meat comes from cattle that were loaded with hormones and anti-biotics.
We still have some butchers here, but yeah, where do they get their meat from....?
Right on, hardly ever will you find a perfect plan. !LOLZ

That is the problem, right, where do you go? Trust the smaller businesses, but in the end, they also want to make money to pay rent and so on. Profit and money-driven society will always end up cutting corners, because in the end everyone needs money to pay for the stuff society deems important (education getting more expensive, health insurance getting more expensive, and so on).
All so true, and I was thinking that we should also build a shack in the back yard and then put our house up for rent. !LOL
Some get free RDP houses and then they stay in their shacks to rent the houses out. Many new ways to make money when one is desperate.
Need I say more about education and health care? Just go and have a look at the monolith HQ of one medical aid in Sandton. It must take millions to manage a building like that, and somebody has to pay for it.

Again, money is evil! There must be better ways to run society. Money, the store of value, leans itself towards a small portion of society hoarding it and then controlling that society. If we get another system, one in which hoarding vast amounts of money cannot happen on the scale it is happening today, we might live in better times. But alas that might be too utopian.
I don't know if I had told you that when we got married 22 years ago, all that we had between us was my wife's car. Oh, and also some books. LOL
I share your view on the hoarding issue, but we are too far down the road to do anything about it. Except of course changing the taxation systems by taxing the super rich exorbitantly, to free up funds for services to the poor communities. Millions of kids go to bed hungry at night. So sad.
For sure. My aim in life is to have only what I really need, and what I really use. If you own things that you never use, those things will end up owning you.
And that is the sad part, right? Even if you only tax the rich a slight bit more than they are taxed now, you will end up helping the poor so much more. But our system is so corrupt.
