FOUR MILLION EUROS IN HONOR

In fact, he didn't want to. He really didn't want to. But he was forced to. Trouble. What can you do with trouble! Trouble slams you into the enemy's door. Trouble even brings the Prime Minister to his knees.

It forces him to tap the government's reserve fund. Completely illegally. But trouble. Trouble forces him. In extremis. That's what he said. In Albanian, at the last moment. He was forced.

To prevent the “cancellation of a long-awaited concert and the embarrassment of Albania.” “Argument” without argument.

In fact, the Prime Minister doesn't mind the concert, even though he is using the concert.

Moreover, the concert of a half-madman who worships Hitler. An anti-Semite expelled from all of Europe. That half-madman, in fact, would do well not to come to Albania.

And Albanians would do even better if they didn't go to that concert. They won't become partners with the Prime Minister in breaking the law.

Because the law does not provide for concerts to be financed from the government's reserve fund.

However, the Prime Minister's biggest concern is not to embarrass Albania.

This is the whole problem. That, if the concert fails, according to him, Albania will be ashamed! So he decided to buy the concert. To buy honor. 4 million euros of honor!

How many kilograms of honor can be bought with 4 million euros? But how much does a kilogram of honor cost? Or is it not measured in kilograms of honor, it is measured in liters, meters, what?!

It's not that expensive. Albania's purchased honor is cheaper than a tower in Tirana. It's even much cheaper than the stolen tunnel of Llogara! It's even much less than a kilometer of road from those that collapse without being built! It doesn't compare to the hundreds of millions stolen with the incinerators that don't exist and with those that do and don't work.

How is it possible that honor is so cheap, only 4 million euros?! Because in this country there are other more expensive things. The laws of the market. It sets the prices.

A corrupt minister costs much more. When the minister is also deputy prime minister, there are additional costs. Then, it depends on who buys him.

When the buyer is a minister, the price is more expensive than when the buyer is a mayor. Meanwhile, there are bonuses for MPs. The bonus also includes free tickets to the concert.

But why are there no bonuses for the sick? Not even for pensioners? There are no bonuses, because there is a queue for them. They are used to queueing, let them wait.

There are about a hundred children a year who are affected by acute leukemia and other types of tumors, whose treatment costs much less than the government concert.

A civic movement has initiated a legal initiative, according to which the state would take over their treatment in specialized clinics abroad.

Even though over 33,000 citizens have signed it so far, the draft law is pending. The initiative is in the queue.

Because there is a queue for sick children. Their condition does not meet the "in extremis" condition that would force the Prime Minister to tap the government's reserve fund.

The concert is something else. It is more important. For sick children, their parents and families have to wait. When your turn comes, it will come to you!

Just as dozens and dozens of other citizens wait in line in the corridors of the oncology hospital for nilotinib, daratumumab, avastin, lomustine... These are not names of singers. They are names of medicines that have been missing for weeks and months.

Their absence is not an emergency. It is not in extremis. The sick are waiting.

As pensioners expect, not only in the subscription queues.

As expected, even the policemen who lead them into battle with criminals, wearing bulletproof vests that don't protect them from bullets.

As firefighters wait, with shovels in their hands and completely unprotected, with ridiculous and insulting salaries for the work they do, to put out the flames.

That there are no "last-minute" conditions for them to tap the government's reserve fund, as was the case for the concert of a half-madman.
