Thank you for the article Alin! Writing this from Croatia and whatever you said in your article and here in the comments you can interchange Romania an Croatia without a second thought. Myself, I work for a US company and the taxman takes almost half of what I've earned. I wouldn't paying any or all of the tax if I would actually get anything in return. Public health system is on the verge of collapse so you have to pay everything out of pocket to doctors working half of the time in the public hospital, the other half in their own, private clinic (yes you've read that right). Housing prices are astronomical made worse by speculation and foreign investment (for their own houses). Gov says: "Take a 30 year mortgage, there is no housing crysis". Public services are atrocious, schools are terrible, police is terrible. The goverment exists only for transfer of EU funds to Croatian private companies owned by those same politicians or their friends. Everything else is secondary. It's just depressing really as there is no long term goal to actually have a better future for the citizens. Its just a race on how much money the govermnent take from you almost at gunpoint.
