Promises.
From an early age, we know what promises are. Sola to us, we promise ... But are these promises always fulfilled? Not all. Both those given to us and those we give. Promises are different. A simple promise, a solemn promise, a pre-election promise, an oath .... The more we listen to these promises, the less faith they have.
Today, our Health
Ministry promises to sort out the health sector. Practically it has
been promised since 1993, but ... Really this industry is
methodically destroyed. Last year, the previous government tried to
put us in the basket as such chickens. The current government regards
it as bad, but it will share it in the baskets to understand who and
how - who is entitled to medicine, but who is head-wrapping and
sucking on the sore. And we all follow these mystical promises,
forgot that basically everything was once. Our MEPs, ministers, civil
servants are spending taxpayers' money in various exchanges,
conferences, but nothing really happens. You see, in a civilized
world, everything has long been divided. There are insured people -
all those who work or otherwise earn and pay taxes. And it may not be
otherwise, because the duty of any employer or self-employed person
under the Law is to insure the worker and himself. And for each such
person, there is a so-called policies number. Enter the clinic,
hospital, name your policies number, and get medical help. But what
to do with those who do not work, do not earn and do not pay taxes?
Well, for example, a homeless? For them, there is such an institution
in the world as the 'Red Cross'. An institution that is living with
donations and for which the state is giving up. But what about us? In
1994, the Red Cross Hospital and Outpatient Clinic was liquidated.
Liquidated what existed even in Soviet times! Why was it removed? Is
it because we don't have the 'Red Cross'? There is one! But he was
eliminated because the 'Red Cross' came not in the right hands. If
someone remembers, there was corruption, embezzlement, and sharing in
our 'Red Cross'. But there is no real "Red Cross" working
for us. And no one is punished for it, nobody asks anything about it
... Although if the millions who are being diverted to various
non-working MH and national health inspectorate (NHI) databases,
would be redirected to such a 'Red Cross', before they have been
corrupt, thieves and the like, then here's the solution.
The Ministry of Defense
... We had to come to 2014 to wake up to MD .... And now we are
undergoing development. But until then? What happened until then?
Destruction of the total industry (if it can be called). I will not
talk about how the Chekists are frightened of the Guardians'
Formation, quickly declaring that the National Guard will be
legitimate in Latvia. OK, no matter how it will be called, the main
thing is to fulfill your duties. And in the beginning everything was
super. There were even a number of professional technical schools
with so-called 'young guards' courses. The young soldiers were
trained, both civilian and military were given them. Where is it all
now? Only in memories. But now the minister is talking about how to
promote the army, how to increase patriotism, how to build soldiers.
But everything was already there and you don't need to think
anything!
Two examples. Two broken
sectors that promise us year-to-year arrangement. What are these
promises? And does it remind us of what we promised in childhood, and
it never did? At least feel similar. The child is sometimes locked up
in the hope that it will forget the promise, or that it will do the
nonsense, and this promise will be missed. What do Ministers and
Members expect when we promise us? To do what we do and then to make
promises? Or rather that no one will do anything to them ...
