Get your hands off of my monkey

From Khaleejtimes.com:

The time to act

MARRIAGE fund is meant to support people with limited income who are unable to bear the burden of marriage. However, grants from the Fund are being misused, with individuals from well-off families — even the sons of businessmen and dignitaries — applying for the same. And this is nothing new to come up. Khaleej Times has discussed it earlier as well.


Pitiful.

It's embarassing how greedy some individuals in my society are.

When I was born my parents were in England and my dad was a student. HE recieved a grant from the government here. My mother was advisedto claim benefits to help and she out right refuses saying that there were definetly others who were more needy.

What is that called? Honesty? Integrity? Responsibility?

These bleeding IPOs. The rich nationals go on about how it's meant to redistribute the wealth. How on earth is that going to happen when the rich bastards keep oversubscribing reducing the potential for the small investors to get a good look in?

It's all about the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer.

Well, they can keep their billions. I know where the wild roses grow...

its the same everywhere...application doesnt equate approval...it's difficult to define poverty level..how poor is poor and how rich is rich..every society has its bench mark ..the UN benchmark is only a guide

So much for that.

You have the benefeit of those applications being brought up to the public, but in Iran, I have yet to see anyone write about rich kids applying or using some of that money. Not that it doesn't happen, it probably does, but no one would know, publicly, because it's not our choice to know.

The surprising thing is that being rich has never actually equated to being generous and an ambassador of goodwill. The only army rich people support is the violent kind; there's no Salvation Army here, unless you account the Imam Khomeini Fund, which has got more clauses than I can list but you have to be a muslim.
