@noelreports well, #Hungary is happily invited to leave the #EU, because #Orban clearly doesn't give a fuck about the #values like #HumanRights and #CivilRights and only wants to grift #subsidies and #embezzle funds.
When you try to (poorly) hide a bribe to a country (just to piss off China) where politicians routinely #embezzle funds.
2028 is far enough away for PNG pollies to spend & stash $600 million.
They might even buy a few footballs & uniforms with it.
AUS$600 million over 10 years to fund PNG’s entry into the #NRL which is expected to enter the competition in #2028.
Oregon weekly newspaper lays off entire staff after discovering a former employee had embezzled $90,000 and left bills unpaid

#kleptocracy: "The biggest winners of all this #hatred will be the #politicians who have failed to improve the #livingstandards of their people despite being in power for decades," he says.
Politicians would swiftly name and shame individuals and NGOs they accuse of supporting and spreading homosexuality in the country but would never dare to expose their peers who #embezzle millions of dollars of #publicfunds.
Alternative definition of #Capitalism:
The #state sanctioned #embezzlement from our progeny of the natural resources presently entrusted to us.
Think about it. The #Econ 101 definition of #profit can be summarized by unit of production as the amount the public is willing to #pay, less the #expense of production. Simple, right?
Wrong.
Because "production" always produces things (called negative externalities) that impact the purchasing #public long after production, that simply don't get counted as an expense of production. #Heat. #CO2. #Refuse. #Toxins. #Depression. Etc. You will never see these expenses of production on the product label, because those things, are the "profit" we ALLOW the capitalists to pocket.
Now, in the past, we thought this was ok because we didn't understand the #relationship between the capitalist "economy" and the law of #conservation of #energy. We failed to understand we're working within a closed system. Any physicist worth a shit sees the #insanity of this system today.
That's the root of this #toot: https://kolektiva.social/@LeftistLawyer/109368652923920994. The time of not #accounting for the real #costs of capitalism is done. Every year we continue to allow this reckless system to persist, we #embezzle the #resources of our children's future. It's an antiquated, and profoundly dangerous, arguably criminal, #economic #system

Capitalism is little more than an ideological hangover produced from a time long past when low hanging fruit was everywhere for the taking and people thought it would never disappear. The fruit is gone, folks. If we ever want it back, capitalism won’t take us there.
