Summary:
The decline is often spoken about but what does it look like? The failed state of South Africa is an excellent analogue to the future socialist failure of western society.
Body:
This video by: Stefan Molyneux examines the decline of South Africa and how the welfare state destroys a former 1st world country.

I highly recommend watching the link above but here are some of the high points in comparison to the decline.
The end of Apartheid in South Africa is similar to the ending of patriarchal society in western society.
While the decline of South Africa is a largely racial base split the actions by the government to socialize society resulted in the rise of the worlds largest welfare state. The current feminist push towards similar welfare states in western countries under the guise of sexism/classism.
Much like naked hiring policies in capitalism is viewed as sexism in the west. It was viewed as racism in South Africa during the apartheid. This was incorrect view primarily driven by communism and socialist groups. Much like feminism is driving force behind sexism rhetoric in capitalism hiring policies. In both societies this resulted in affirmative action hiring policies which benefit the majority and expansion of social welfare.
This welfare resulted in a rise in single motherhood, the collapse of the education system for skilled workers, increase in social science & administration degrees to fill government jobs. This also increased polygamy resulting in the spread of HIV and other STDs.
This is currently occurring in the west as we are seeing a fast reduction in males completing post secondary education coupled with a similar increase in social science amongst women. Polygamy/sexual promiscuity is also on the rise in the west often referred to a the cock carousel in TRP.
Ultimately this resulted in an flight of educated STEM particularly amongst whites (mostly male) and a collapse of infrastructure, medical services and education completion rates. This has also result in a large police state with high rates of murder, rape, sexual assault & private police forces.
South Africa is now suffering from mass unemployment in highly educated areas resulted in the collapse of the electrical grid. This cause a collapse in the manufacturing sector and ultimately resulted in a spike in welfare requirements.
The attempted solution of this collapse of the economy was the reduction of interest rates to near zero. The resulted in the printing of money and the start of hyper inflation.
As a result of this collapse life expectancy as plummeted by 9 years. Only 6% of the population is paying for 99% of the tax base. Malnutrition is rampant due to the inability to afford basic goods due to hyper inflation.
The drive towards minincome in Canada and Nordic countries will result in a similar welfare state. Likely with similar results in the long run. There are 5 people on welfare in every tax payer in South Africa. This will likely be the long term effect of minincome. Often referred to as marriage to the state in TRP theory.
Conclusion:
The decline of South Africa is likely to mirror the future decline of the west. This decline was on the back of manufacturing a large welfare state which is currently occurring in western nations. Western nations are now on the brink of collapse much like South Africa was a generation ago. The future will likely reflect the same collapse in the west. When it will occur will be up for debate however if is not.
