**South Africa Targets White Business Owners with Race-Based Water Restrictions**

In the midst of a violent crime crisis, with up to three murders per hour, South Africa’s government appears obsessed with driving out White South Africans. The African National Congress (ANC) has now drafted regulations to enforce race quotas for water use licenses for businesses, targeting White and Indian business owners.

Previously, we reported on government rules that make it exceedingly difficult for businesses to hire White or Indian workers, while controversial affirmative action policies give preference to Black candidates. Now, water is being wielded as the latest weapon to force White South Africans out of the country.

Newsweek states that applicants for consumptive water use would need to allocate shares to Black people based on the size of their land. Businesses wanting more water usage would need a higher share of Black ownership. Under these new regulations, usage of more than 250,000 cubic meters of water requires at least 25 percent Black ownership. Similarly, using over 500,000 cubic meters would necessitate 50 percent Black ownership, and requiring over a million cubic meters would force businesses to have at least 75 percent Black ownership.

These race-based water usage restrictions have sparked outrage among White South Africans, who view them as an unjust attempt to address apartheid-era inequalities. The move to limit White people’s access to water demonstrates a disturbing trend towards race-based policies that target White and Indian citizens, rather than focusing on healing the nation and addressing the real challenges that South Africa faces.
