Hopefully they will vote the ANC out. It seems that that's at least possible whereas in Zimbabwe they probably can't vote out the ZANU-PF.

According to CIA World Factbook, Argentina has a real GDP per capita of $21,500 and South Africa $13,300 (both for the year 2021). Thus, Argentina still seems to be about 60% richer than South Africa, at least by that metric.

@Potato_Smuggler It probably won't vanish completely (unless major infighting erupts) but it might at least be unseated from government or have to form a coalition with other parties. This still poses at least 2 risks as a) the other parties might not have the experience of running the executive branch and b) one of the major opposition parties is Marxist-Leninist and therefore could be even worse. But one can always hope.

18:55 Here you say that the decline isn't inevitable but the title of the video says the exact opposite.
