You know his name. <BR/><BR/>He talks God, but the 24-storied Godzilla being erected right outside my window — night and day — is telling me he doesn’t exactly practice what he preaches.<BR/><BR/>When I was in college, my father would have died of cancer had we not scrambled enough money to pay for his surgery. (It didn’t help to know that according to the Constitution the state provides for healthcare.)<BR/><BR/>Veronica’s loss gives us yet another bitter example of how the system serves itself almost every step of the way. The only solace, if any, is that the pain she has suffered was not suffered in silence.<BR/><BR/>Of course, there is no “magic bullet” in the pay itself. The pay should link people to performance. We start by hiring the right people, and then proceed by paying them the right money, and holding them accountable for the results. So far, the Ukrainian government does neither.<BR/><BR/>To make it happen, we must shake up that "stabilnist" thing.Tarashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139892487573795049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202630.post-50366267737501745192007-08-06T22:44:00.000+04:002007-08-06T22:44:00.000+04:00s--t, d--n, f--k!

I get rather upset by "priests" complaining about fees...<BR/><BR/>I guess the most important reforms need to start from within...<BR/><BR/>I hope your family can find solace somehow besides large quantities of alcohol. I hope you can forget the priest's indiscretions and remember his words. I hope your country gets more people like the cop and fewer people like the priest.<BR/><BR/>dlwDLWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17709279441985086959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5202630.post-81416966239304816532007-08-04T21:55:00.000+04:002007-08-04T21:55:00.000+04:00Continued condolences.
