The Pathology of the loot: The South African case

Editoral notes:

The South African official/reduced/strict unemployment rate was stated in the video to be 40%, the correct figure is around 35%, 40% is for the expanded/full unemployment rate. Apologies for the error.

Also the video begins rather abruptly, due to technical error in the recording, no content of significance was lost due to this. Apologies here too.
