  • The Institute for Economic Justice contends that the 2022 South African budget prioritizes 'fiscal consolidation' over fundamental human rights, leading to real-term funding cuts in health and education. The author argues that these 'false economies' increase long-term costs and social volatility, citing the R50-billion damage from the July 2021 riots as a warning of the costs of inequality. The document calls for Parliament to reject the budget and demand a version that does not violate the Constitution.
