He uses social media to raise his concerns about how SA tax monies are used by the government and his forthright views are again attracting attention. Under the appealing title of “Want to stop funding the ANC with YOUR tax money? Here’s how…” Petzer’s 18 minute YouTube video has been viewed 54 000 times in under a week.
