Ownership should be the entry ticket to BEE game
I concur with the views of the former president of the Black Management Forum (BMF), a fearless advocate of the ownership society - Mr Lot Ndlovu. He says and this makes perfect sense to me and I know to others as well "Ownership should be the entry ticket into the black economic empowerment (BEE) game. It's real ownership that yields real economic value".
Let us begin by simplifying things and understand what I mean by Ownership.
Terms and justification
"Ownership is the state or fact of exclusive rights and control over property, which may be an object, land/real estate, or some other kind of property (like government-granted monopolies collectively referred to as intellectual property). It is embodied in an ownership right also referred to as title. Ownership is the key building block in the development of the capitalist socio-economic system." - Wikipedia.
Capitalism is a socio-economic system in which private ownership means profit to the owner. The owner controls the means of production, so the profit belongs to the private business owner. In capitalism, the free market determines the production, distribution and price of goods and services.
