Znam da je ovo skroz off topic za cijeli Jabučnjak, ali stvar je jako zanimljiva i vrlo edukativna, a znam da ovdje ima dosta ljudi koji vole edukativne stvari.

reddit - How real-world corruption works

Osnovni tekst je fenomenalan, komentari su još i bolji.

Ovaj dio se nažalost ne odnosi na situaciju kod nas, tu uglavnom čobani imaju utjecaj i moć:

"Those who rise to high levels of influence usually have some pretty good insight and talent in their area of expertise. Those who have acquired a lot of power tend to be good at accomplishing things that lots of people want to see happen.

None of which is purely democratic, nor even purely meritocratic, but there is a certain dose of both kind of baked into the cake: stuff like wealth or family connections only gets you so far in modern, developed, and relatively open and transparent societies such as the US."

Ovo je uvreda za svakog pravog čobana.

Da, mentalitet koji bi bio nešto poput ovih komentara sa gornjeg linka:

- Corruption has its origins in the clash between the urban lifestyle and the tribal mindset.

- Expound, please. Even if it's just a few sentences

- The tribal mindset says you should help your extended family as much as you can, through your connections and power. The urban lifestyle says you should obey the law.

Ja već dugo tvrdim da smo mi pleme divljaka.

Ja sam divljak, al nisam u plemenu.

Nekako mi ne lezi ta definicija urbanog stila...
Iako ja grabim samo za sebe, tako da mi ni onaj drugi opis bas ne smeka.

Ako je zakon los, mijenjas ga (ako mozes).
Ako ga nemozes promijeniti, moras ga krsiti, jer je los.
Nije moralno raditi lose stvari.
