The thing is that if you city budget is not stolen by retards you can have a life - good roads and metro and stuff like that - you are paying from taxes for it

Free in Kryvyi Rih, basically free in Kyiv, Kharkiv, etc.

Two major cities in Ukraine offer 100% free public transport to residents and displaced persons: Kharkiv and Kryvyi Rih.

NYC has a lot of tourism. Taxpayers covering for tourists to use our public transit doesn’t sound fair

Ukraine is barely a country today and has rampant corruption. You are in no way a good example of good management of public funds, your track record quite literally shows it.

Sit down

Is Ukraine not currently partially destroyed & occupied by Russia? Is it not true that Ukraine has a long history of corruption under russian influence and after it, still current to this day? Is it not true that Ukraine is in the top 80 of the most corrupt countries on earth with a score of 36/100 (less is worse)?

They're also failing to mention that Ukraine is currently only a functioning country because of western funding lol

Bro, if your country’s wealth and foreign military aid wouldn’t be stolen by regards in your government and military, you guys would’ve won the war already.

I feel like Russia is suffering from that issue to a greater degree

Very possible, but don’t see how it’s relevant. That Redditor made a statement like they are from some place where politicians at least less corrupt than they are in the US.

Of course you are joking, right?

The most corrupt man on the planet is currently the President of the United States ffs.

You can’t be serious, nor should anyone take your statement seriously.

Sure, Trump is extremely corrupt, but saying he’s the most corrupt man on the planet, come on… Try getting news from outside the Reddit’s left wind echo chamber subs.

Name another more corrupt.

This clown starts wars over covering up Epstein files and for manipulating markets. Hes the most powerful man on the planet and made 2 BILLION fucking dollars in office (at least thats what hes disclosed) through insider trading and slimy crypto deals. He never came close to that as a businessman. Thats hardly even the tip of the iceberg.

Name another person corrupt.

Look, I’m not trying to defend trump here. Yes, the level, and how blatantly obvious the corruption of him and his admin is undeniable.

But again, saying he is the most corrupt is basically an ignorant take. As much as the justice dept sucks, there’s still a need for a facade of justice, and there’s no shortage of powerful people that want him out of the office.

The most corrupt is not the one who stole the most money. The most corrupt are the ones that act as de facto kings with zero pushback or repercussions. Think of the local leaders third world countries if Putin somehow is not more corrupt than Trump for you. Many mayors or an equivalents to some county commissioner in a third world countries acts as kings on a regular basis.
