Yes, and they are. I know people that work for the EU. Romania's government is so incompetent and corrupt that they're literally refusing EU loans or grants because they can't embezzle funds. And even when they somehow manage to get the funds, they're so incompetent that they can't manage to finish things on time and on budget. They started building a highway in Transylvania in 1999 and they've barely built 40% of it, 20 years later.

They've restarted works 2 times, my guess they do it so that each new government gets its cut.

These people are so cynical they'd just watch the country burn for their personal interest.




It’s sad but I think this is one of the key difference in richer nations is they just have better attitudes.
