Why Do Tourists Come To South Africa

I mean what sort of research does the modern day tourists to South Africa carry out before they visit us here in the deep south of the mighty African continent. If they listened to the locals they would very quickly find out that the country is dating junk status, the government is corrupt, the police are corrupt and a good many of them are also criminals in their spare time, crime has gone ballistic, the cost of everything has gone up and up and up, no one gets on with anyone else, racists think they own Facebook, the roads are rubbish, the trains are rubbish and dangerous, there is no good public transport, the electric cuts out, there is a national drought and above all we have a major crisis with our national rugby team. If they listened to other visitors who had visited the country previously they would find out that everything is so bloody far away, that there are no lions anywhere near Cape Town, in game parks you have to search all day to find a lion or a cheetah, even the bloody elephants are hard to spot, then they expect you to sleep in an old four-poster bed in a flipping tent and charge you a fortune to do it. They would also find out that the languages are confusing, to put it mildly, and that the food is even more confusing, what the hell is a braai and how do you say it. The wine is okay, but it's not like the real stuff from somewhere like France. You have to have someone to guard your car when you are not in it, and that baboons always managed to get into tourists cars and steal their food. You can buy fish and chips, but no chance of getting brown vinegar to put on them, the internet is at best slow and Amazon's Echo has not been launch in the country. Then there is the countries parliament which is something to behold, recently the Moscow State Circus on a tour of the country blamed parliament for trying to steal their jobs. The Moscow state Circus claims they are a real circus with real clowns. So I ask the question again, why do so many tourists come here, don't you know you are irritating to the locals, your driving is appalling and your dress sense is plain ridiculous, no one needs a full safari outfit and stout boots to walk around Cape Town. We may think South Africa is fucked up, but please we don't need you to come and try to fix it with your fancy ideas and flash currencies. On a more positive note, the tourist season will soon be over and we can all get on living our seriously deprived lives in this hell hole called South Africa. Um, nice thought.
