You only have to look at the fortunes amassed by career politicians in the US. And the millions that roll in to their drug addicted, unqualified family members who sit on the boards of foreign companies, or make fortunes when they luck out on the stock market just before the Govt changes a policy or issues a new contract.
Isn't it the US that consumes over 80% of the world's opioids like fentanyl, oxycontin, etc? These synthetic opioids were too expensive to purchase by the addicted, so they then progressed onto cheaper heroin sold by gangs. I read that deaths resulting from addiction to this pain relief are frighteningly high in the USA and the family run pharmasutical companies made staggering fortunes from this unfortunate misery. Those in high positions of power have a lot to answer for, but as usual will never see a cell for their crimes against humanity, nor will the truth ever see the light of day.
I'm not sure if the conflict will ever end in the Ukraine and I can only guess that once the Ukrainian nation is so decimated it may well end up being carved up between the east and west. The eastern bit along with the Crimea being controlled by the Russian federation and the west being controlled by groups like Blackwater. Who knows it may descend into a mercenary war between Blackwater mercenaries and Wagner PMC. Was that the plan all along, a plan by the elite to rob the Ukrainian people of their land and assets so Blackwater, etc, can then move in and become the new landlord of the manor with big brother Nato on standby with it's nuclear missile bases all pointing in the direction of christian Russia?
I feel for the suffering and displaced Ukrainians that are scattered never to return anytime soon and feel that no matter how many perish it'll all be 'worth it' in the end.
If you don't know where you are going, every road will get you nowhere.
