Rants & Frustrations

Stuff I fumigate about

Notes

Ok, so the pensions are too low and the salaries are too low and taxes are too high. Got it. But what is it you want instead? What is your plan for servicing these crippling loans to the IMF (about which I’ve written several times), which is what is behind all of these “austerity” measures by the government? What’s your long range plan for the Romanian economy? Education? Health care? These are the kinds of conversations we all need to be having with one another, not just standing in the cold and waving signs. Yeah the current government sucks but the next one isn’t going to be any better until you and I and all of our neighbors know what we want. And that means we need to talk to one another, not just shout at politicians and the media cameras.
