I’m not saying that’s the issue. We should absolutely invest in the defence forces. What I’m saying is that it should be far down the list of priorities, given the real, actual problems happening right now. Not some imaginary threat from across the continent.

Even more tax spent to protect massive US corporates. Working out great so far isn’t it? Housing, healthcare, transport, energy, water, all broken. But let’s throw money at this sure. At least we’ll make the lobbyists happy.

Fair points. Not too familiar with the situation in Romania but it seems the people voted against “the establishment”, as we’ve seen in other European countries over the last number of years.

My view is that in a healthy democracy any external influence wouldn’t achieve such results but maybe I’m too optimistic.

Great post.

To add to this, not resorting to calling others tankies or Russian bots when you have differing opinions, especially around politics.
