#1 - has this fool looked at the USA?

#2 - Has he even pretended to look honestly at Russia?

#3 - I am a staunch supporter of Ukraine and their right to defend themselves (and to the restoration of their pre-2014 borders) - but I also know for a fact they have a problem with corruption. The people know - they people (talking about the average folks on the streets) hate it - their distrust of all government officials is stifling.

Well, the Big Guy and Z have to get their 10% off the top.

Then, it has to filter back to the coffers of the pols and officials.

Wars are expensive.

And lucrative.

Ukraine has long been a money laundering cesspool for democrats. Send “foreign aid”, get kickbacks. There are many other such locations, but Ukraine was central hence their desperate attempts to keep the gravy train going.

In the early 1970’s, I remember how the left complained about the corruption in South Vietnam and how that corruption was a justification of halting all US aid.

Ukraine Corruption is profound. I tried over a period of about a year to do business there. I have worked all over Latin America and all over Africa, and never saw anything like it. It is simply not possible for an American company subject to FCPA restrictions. We did work successfully in Russia and made money legitimately there, although the opportunities to engage in corruption were endless, just as they are here in the US. Ukraine was like Russia, but with no rules. Our company’s billionaire owner, whose family operated orphanages in Ukraine, finally pulled the plug on the effort, stating that there is just no way we could legally do business and make money in Ukraine. That is my experience.
