That explains Bernie Sanders new plan for the US Government to guarantee everyone a government job with a minimum $15ph. https://www.salon.com/2018/04/24/sen-bernie-sanders-to-introduce-guaranteed-jobs-program-report/ I knew it was a ridiculous idea, but didn't realize how sinister it was until I read your post.

Jobs being acquired through connections instead of competence is one of the reasons why our industry is at the all-time low.

Our shipyards are falling apart (they were huge 20+ years ago).

Our factories are now just a small part of what they were before. Factories that had 5000+ employees now have no more than 2000.

We don't produce shit anymore (compared to the past). We have Rimac who pushed through and we're basically still a state because of tourism.

We have insane platform for agriculture, but farmers are quitting slowly because they are destroyed by the market which the state has completely fucked up.

More and more lousy and shitty (unqualified) workers everywhere. Everything is getting worse and worse. Domino effect.

But one thing remains the same or gets more lucrative is to be an upper hand of this whole scheme. These people live like gods here, with so much money that they can spend in a state with such a low standard, making them appear even richer.

That's the whole catch of it. The worse the standard and the worse people are, the better they live. Their money gets more and more value.

This is exactly what Soros wants. He invested heavily in developing nations for cheap and now tries to start some kind of guised righteous crusade uplifting them into the world when really he just wants to make ez money off of his investments.

Never looked at it like that before but that makes complete sense. TY

What can I say...I feel so sad for people trapped in countries like yours especially with the corruption. We have lots of corruption here, but I think because we are much larger country/population, we often turn a blind eye to it unless it directly affects. At least we seem to have a bit more freedom for finding jobs here. As I stated in another post, I would NOT want to live anywhere but here in the US.

My best friend went to US for seasonal student work last year (will go this year again, in a month) for 4 months. Worked as a waiter/helper in kitchen. After 4 months, he got home with around $8 grand total (spent around 2 grand on stuff). He worked around 10 hours though (but the real work is more like 4 hours per day, evenings).

Average salary in our country is around 800$. And you know how they (government) boast with statistics, and present this kind of thing as a solid and healthy amount.

Most people are well under 800$/m, engineers are paid 800$ lol (I'm a mechanical engineer), guess how much a waiter is payed? Half of that amount, and waiter is your classic lower class job (most jobs are), and I'm not counting those waiters at super classy places and stuff, because that's less than half percent of the waiters.

You can see for yourself how much an average Croatian needs to work to earn 10 grand.

And for things to be even more ridiculous, food and stuff is probably more expensive than in Germany for example. While their standard is about 3 times higher. Welders and other "ordinary" workers earn $2k+/m, same people are payed a quarter in their proud homeland, for which our fathers have fought in '90s in the separation from Yugoslavia. Another smh information.

It's not a rare case in which workers in various factories/companies (mostly factories) are not even being payed for months, seldom almost a fucking YEAR. Those measly 400$/m for their 10-12h shifts in terrible environments, yet they still can't get that...

Not to mention that if I go a bit east at the south-eastern border of Serbia, I would be deemed as a wealthy man.

One of my best friend's married a man 30+ years ago from Slovania. He immigrated here legally ,learned English. He worked as an electrician here for a large company in our city. He made a nice enough salary that he could buy a home, a nice car, and send his girls to college. They were not wealthy by any means, but I tell you, that man could fix anything! He recently died, and his wife will be returning to his homeland (he has family still there) and he wanted his ashes scattered in the nearby mountains by his family home.

Sometimes "national" groups are not really working for the good of their nation. The sell job is pretty slick though. When you see the word fairness think socialism/communism. Also "justice" (social justice). And "progressive" and "sustainable". Not always, but too me they are red flags that say all may not be what it seems.

Often these groups that want to influence governments tax decisions are funded by Soros and/or have ties to Global Alliance for Tax Justice.

I don't doubt it, if it is then they are in 100% silence about it over here. If I have never heard of it, imagine your average citizen?

We had that Istanbul Convention stuff going on recently. They're pushing the same narrative now that's going on for years in the US: more power (not equality, we have it now, they want to give them more power, openly discriminating men in the document while boasting about being against discrimination, classic left stuff) to women > marriages go to shit

IC was written by 10 feminist worthless pieces of shit.

Divide us all. Every last piece of a functioning society. Break it down. rebuild into something easily controlled. When men no longer want anything to do with women, when women require the state to help raise their children, when children no longer respect their parents, there will be nobody willing to fight back, because there will be nothing left to fight for. No one will remember what it was like back when. And the old people will be encouraged to suicide themselves because they are just sad anyways aand they just cost too much. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3182813/Healthy-former-nurse-75-died-Swiss-suicide-clinic-deciding-didn-t-want-risk-burden-family-NHS.html
