DEAR UKRAINIANS: THE PROBLEM IS YOU.
Another day dealing with pervasive ukrainian incompetence. If any protocol is non trivial in that it crosses boundaries of responsibikity, then in true soviet fashion there is a near certsinty a ukrainian will fuck it up by not handling the exception and instead laziliy and incompetently following the rule.
And they dont even understand that they fucked up, or that the primary reason they are poor is their failure to understand that they fucked up.
Here is the rule: if you ate aware of it or can be aware of it, its your problem until you are aware it is fixed completely.
Soviet version is that you are only responsible for that about which you do not have to think.
Every time you do not take responsibility for everything not right of which you are aware, you are stealing from the possible prosperity of you and your people.
There are no conditions – ever – under which you are not responsible for that of which you are aware.
Ukraine is poor because no one takes responsibility for making it prosper. And what makes a people prosper is not a few big things by government but a million billion tiny things by each individual.
So the next time you wonder why you are poor, look in the mirror at the person to blame.
If you are aware of it, then you must fix it until someone else promises you that they will fix it faster and better than you will instead.
Ukraine is poor for this single reason. People do not pay for the common things that make a people economically efficient and free of risk to compete with the rest of the world.
Look in the mirror.
The problem is YOU. Not your culture, not your government, but YOU.
The culture and the government are made of people just like YOU.
