Take two chickens: one belongs to a farm, the other a family home. Eggs produced by the first chicken will go to market, where they will be sold for an average of 1 leu, organic eggs even more. They will contribute to the budget via VAT, profit and income tax, salary tax and social security contributions. And this is how you explain liberalism.

it is currently facing a budgetary crisis caused by big increases in public spending, primarily on pensions and higher salaries for state workers. Have they been hiring consultants from California ?

He’s supposed to serve even the “useless people” - the ones with chicken coops in their back yards- and not just those who provide the state with revenue by their activities.
Guy seems to have forgotten that government is supposed to serve the people, not the other way around. The purpose of government is not to consume revenue- though all governments quickly forget they are servants of the people and try to become the reason for their own existence, serving themselves only. This is why politicians need to be reminded from time to time of their true status.

I love the Chik-fil-A commercial that applies here:
See what a little chicken does for you? . . . chicken, chicken chicken

lol - and you can say the same for anything you do for yourself. Enjoy knitting? Nope, not allowed, you should have to buy all your clothes. Enjoy growing vegetables? Nope, you should have to buy them all. Etc...
So how you end up focusing on eggs is laughable. Maybe they should concentrate on the corruption, I hear it is out of control in Romania. I’m sure there’s a lot of waste.

Well, that’s a lot lot LOT much better explanation/excuse for failing to pass a balanced budget——— than any American politician’s ever come up with. It’s all the chickens’ fault! (Even HilLIARy hasn’t managed to blame the chickens yet.....)

It’s Wickard v Filburn all over again.
Maybe Kramerica Industries was onto something, if they could have just gotten that chicken.

Clearly, Romania needs to put a stake in the heart of yet more communist vampires.
