State collapse is inevitable when a society’s leaders are insulated from the negative consequences of their bad decisions.

So this would be a good avenue for someone with legal experience to investigate. Government funds come with all kinds of strings attached. I would like to believe there’s a way to work this from the back-end and make some changes? It’s hard for me to NOT classify this as embezzlement, but I’m not a legal expert.
The strings are attached only for the unfavored. As we keep seeing, there is clearly a favored class (that is aligned with those who have captured all the institutions and levers of power) that can openly violate any law, rule, or guideline with complete impunity.
Yea and jumping up and down screaming it’s not fair or that’s not legal is just weakness on display like Elephants give a fuck about a handful of ants that he keeps stepping on…
Spot on. But that’s the essence of the Fox News business model (or Hannity, specifically): hammer on the double standards and hypocrisy every day to stoke outrage. And then do the very same thing the next day, and the day after that. Thereby creating the condition I’ve dubbed “poltiical blue balls”, where there is nothing but buildup and anticipation, without any release.
My point being that too many people are still failing to make the connection between the obvious double standard, and the reality that it cannot be fixed without violence (I e., war) because you do not prevail against an unprincipled opponent by being polite and following the rules. The real problem is most people are just too uncomfortable with acknowledging that reality, so they are effectively stuck, seeing no way out. And that is grinding them down.
Stolen, every dime of it I’ll warrant. Some for the teachers, more for the administrators, the largest cut to the local politicians. Then some laundered back to DC as “political contributions”.
