"If indeed the USA is the best democracy money can buy, then certainly Ukraine, the largest country wholly within Europe, is a democratic price-grabber's flea market. Open-air, unvarnished, the affairs of any level of government judicial, legislative, or executive are on sale, 24/7. Slip your money under the vendor's table.
