Why? Because the current government didn't hit a Soviet-style reset button?
- s1artibartfast 4y agoyes. The current government is accountable for its own corruption. If the current president is taking bribes, They are at fault. The fact that the last government was also corrupt is not an excuse.

IMO he should have used all the political capital he had gathered to make some difficult decisions (not a reset, but major changes). Unfortunately for South Africa, he (and every subsequent ANC leader) just coasted, and here we are.
