Podcast appearances and mentions of gabriel crouse

Die Instituut vir Rasseverhoudinge sê president Cyril Ramaphosa het tereg opgemerk dat ware hervorming en ekonomiese groei mekaar nie uitsluit nie. Die president het in sy weeklikse nuusbrief gesê ekonomiese groei sonder hervorming verskans uitsluiting en hervorming sonder groei is nie volhoubaar nie. Gabriel Crouse van die instituut sê werklike hervorming gebeur wanneer geleenthede uitgebrei word om meer burgers te betrek deur onderwys, indiensopleiding en werklike verbetering van inkomste, welvaart en lewenstandaarde:

Pressure on the ANC's elite-enriching BEE policies ratcheted up to a new level this week. Apart from GNU negotiations over the delayed National Budget, attention was also focused on BEE after on the completion, 17 years later, of the Kusile power station at a final cost of R250bn. It had been signed off as an R80bn project, but was massively escalated by BEE requirements that opened the door to corruption and rent seeking. Among the beneficiaries was (publicly disclosed) billions received by the ANC's investment arm Chancellor House. IRR fellow Gabriel Crouse spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

Economic issues only tend to grab attention when their consequences have a direct impact on our pockets. South Africans are in one of those rare moments right now after the ANC was blocked from jacking up VAT from 15% to 17% to fund an increase for public sector employees who already receive the highest share of tax in the world. So a World Bank report quantifying the economic cost of SA's massive ‘BEE premium' put this elite-benefitting policy into the spotlight in a country where Black unemployment has risen from 6m to 11m since 2007. In this fascinating interview, Gabriel Crouse a fellow at the prestigious Institute of Race Relations, estimates that ending BEE would enable VAT to actually be cut to 11.5%. Notably, the BEE Scam was also highlighted by the Zondo Commission. Crouse spoke to BizNews editor Alec Hogg.

In this episode of update from BizNews, Gabriel Crouse of the IRR picks up on the World Bank's advice on how SA can end 17 years of economic stagnation - address its R150bn a year elite-enriching BEE laws. Also, in the wake of disastrous international policies, GNU members are weighing how to fix the mess; Donald Trump's first major speech; Zelensky backs down; and two sides of the future for stock market - productivity-driven boom or mean-reverting 50% Crash?

Wildly incorrect figures on land ownership are being bandied about on social media in South Africa, where expropriation without compensation is a trending topic. We get some perspective from Institute of Race Relations (IRR) fellow Gabriel Crouse who says: “…if you want to know what could the government confirm in terms of racial ownership…it could only confirm 22% of land owned by white people.” He warns: “Black South Africans literally have the most to lose because Black South Africans have the most land in terms of urban land and almost certainly the most land by value, particularly if you're looking at residential land, which is the most valuable land in the country.” As for US President Donald Trump's refugee offer to Afrikaners, he says: “…the State Department would have done much better to say that all South Africans are at risk, that all South Africans stand to gain from strong property rights and lose from weak property rights, and not to single out one group, which they can't even define, we suspect, for special refugee benefits.” Meanwhile, IRR Legal, which Crouse leads, is heading to court. “Personally, I think we're going to win.”

The Institute of Race Relations says South Africa's minimum wage has led to a staggering 230,000 job losses in 2024 alone. The Institute says this represents 3.4% of the 6.7 million low-wage jobs in the country, where workers earn up to R7,500 per month. The IRR is blaming the mandated minimum wage of R27.58 per hour for this devastating impact. The Institute is urging the National Minimum Wage Commission to reconsider its recommendation to increase the minimum wage by inflation, plus 1.5%. This comes on the heels of an 8.5% increase in the minimum wage announced by the Department of Employment and Labour in early 2024. To elaborate further on this issue, Elvis Presslin spoke to Institute of Race Relations Legal Executive Director, Gabriel Crouse

Die Instituut vir Rasseverhoudinge stel 'n nie-rassige benadering voor in die voortgesette debat oor die Wysigingswet op Basiese Onderwyswette. Die instituut se voorstel is om te fokus op die aantal klaskamers en dit te vermeerder en om ingewortelde kwessies in die onderwysstelsel te pak, eerder as om taalbeleid te gebruik en skole te dwing om dubbelmedium te word. Gabriel Crouse van die instituut vra die regering om die oorsake van swak onderwysprestasie te ondersoek en bepleit nie-rassige gebruike in skooltoelatings:

Die Instituut vir Rasseverhoudinge is besorg omdat landelike grondeienaars se eiendomsreg hulle ontneem word ingevolge die nuwe gewysigde Wet op Gemeenskaplike Eiendomsverenigings. Gabriel Crouse van die IRR sê 470 000 landelike grondeienaars moet nou goedkeuring van die staat kry om hul grond te verhuur of te verkoop, wat ekonomiese vryheid aan bande lê. Hy sê dit bedreig alle eiendomsreg in Suid-Afrika. Crouse vra die wetgewing moet herroep of regstappe gedoen word om landelike gemeenskappe se ekonomiese geleenthede te beskerm: 

The ANC Study Group on Agriculture in Parliament has commended Agriculture Minister John Steenhuisen's decision to request the resignation of his Chief of Staff, Roman Cabanac, following widespread public outcry. Cabanac, a podcaster known for his alleged polarizing views, had faced intense criticism for his support of Helen Zille's colonialism remarks and opposition to COVID-19 lockdown measures. To discuss this development Elvis Presslin spoke to Gabriel Crouse, a fellow at the Institute for Race Relations

We had a conversation with Gabriel Crouse, executive director of IRR legal regarding Minister John Steenhuisen's nomination of contentious podcaster Roman Cabanac as chief of staff in his department. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
