A quotation from Kipling

It is always a temptation to a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say: —
“Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”
 
And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.

Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936) English writer
School History, “Dane-Geld (A.D. 980-1016),” st. 3-4 (1911) [with C.R.L. Fletcher]

The US is F.U.B.A.R. The budget reconciliation bill MAGA passed is like throwing dynamite in a fire.
We have become another Russia where the oligarchs payoff Putin to run corrupt enterprises. #maga #corruption #payoff #wages #wagedisparity #poverty
