Something about the
Dominique Strauss-Khan incident is eating away at my standards. So he got randy
with a hotel maid. Nasty, indiscrete, French, but not necessarily a deal
breaker. He will not go to prison if his lawyer is any good, and I am told he
is.
That which absolutely
boils my blood is DSK was put up in New York in a $3,000 a night hotel
presumably paid for by the IMF. An Indonesian laborer would not make that
amount of money in three years with basic wage at about a dollar per working
day. Where in the world is the IMF's sense of balance, fairness and values to
support such luxury? What amount is paid for other members of the IMF board to
spend the night somewhere?
I call this immoral.
Donald Trump, Soros, Bill Gates
or any Saudi Prince can spend whatever they want for a night in a hotel, but
officers of international organizations should be ashamed of themselves for
using donor money for their trysts and treats while staying abroad. I am
completely against this sort of spending and firmly believe it is not for
comfort, a better nights sleep, first class service, privacy or anything other
than overweening egos that compel our captains of development to indulge in
such unmitigated hedonism.
I hope DSK goes to prison and they cut off his
ego.
