Statement from Natasha Srdoc, Chairman, Adriatic Institute on former PM Janez Jansa's conviction in the Slovene bribery case connected to Finland's Patria company and the pin-prick strike against colossal corruption in Croatia, Slovenia and the Balkans:
It is vitally important to root out rampant corruption in SE Europe and address the $111.6 billion in illicit financial outflows via crime, corruption and tax evasion during 2001-2010 which has devastated economies, left millions of youth with an uncertain future and marginalized citizens with punitive taxes and the heavy weight of debt.

Jedna potpuno banalna i vjerovatno svim prolaznicima kroz ulicu Carice Milice u Banjaluci neprimjetna stvar me je podstakla da napišem ovih par redaka.
If you are wondering why is your wallet thinner and thinner, there are three answers:
1. Burdensome taxes
2. Huge government spending

“I hope that the taxpayers all over Europe listen to this: if we look at the EU officials who work for the European Commission and work for the European Parliament, the highest category are people that earn a net take home pay of just over 100 thousand pounds a year. And yet under EU rules they pay tax of 12%. It is tax fraud on an absolutely massive scale.” Nigel Farage MEP, leader of UK Independence Party (UKIP). Joint debate: European Council meeting (22 May 2013) – tax avoidance and tax havens, EuropeanParliament, Strasbourg, 21 May 2013. Source: UKIPmeps YouTube channel.
