Perhaps academics with can help in this instance or people with a legal background (law school graduates) or graduates from other social sciences would be suitable. Political presence in an Independent decision making body would not produce fair, unbiased or just decisions, thus it will not be Independent. Independent decision making bodies must be independent and neutral in relation to their political views during decision making [just as the Judges in the Court rooms must be]. BGN 250,000.00 is a very low threshold, it would mean waste of precious time in dealing with unnecessary individuals, and perhaps BGN 500,000 would be more realistic to triggering an action. Perhaps the right to probe incomes for a period of 5 to 10 years would be more adequate. The idea of probing incomes for a period of 25 years is an incredibly long period. The interference with the rights of the individual for 25 years would be immensely inadequate and unacceptable. Seizing assets without conviction would be equal to being detained without a court trial - this, surely must not be what the former Justice Minister meant. The critical point in relation to the argument "to restore the belief in justice in society" is that the Bulgarian citizens, broadly, hold a huge sense of sarcasm when it comes to hidden or exposed wealth. It is apparent that it will take time to restore “a belief in justice”, the starting point would be the most difficult as it would mean that the Government will have to set the law and the governing bodies and the politicians will have to set themselves as an example to the people they govern and lead during this Parliamentary term. If there is a political will to pursue this Project, setting the law is not impossible, however the first thing which strikes anybody holding more capital than the average wealthy, in reality, is that nobody would be happy to give away what currently belongs to them. And in truth there are always lawful ways of dealing with wealth whether it is for tax reasons or otherwise. 217984 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217983&post_id=217983#217983 Naso Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:39:38 +0200 Good luck Max, Interactive, Resourceful and Open PRs are the very musing elements of the 21st Century, educational resources evolutionary socio-economic and geopolitical processes. Just one more challenge for you, I guest. "Young VS Old" world. 217983 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217982&post_id=217982#217982 Naso Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:16:42 +0200 Today and in the Future “The Dirt” (Bio-Gold), “Water” and all “Natural” resources are going to sky-rocked the 21 century markets in demand of it. Bulgaria is expressible lucky country to have abundances of this things. And very dissolute of not having young people, managers and leaders capable to comprehend that. That is all. If Bulgarian people and it administration do not get out of the darkish, there will be no “Good” of any kind to help. That's how it is: The EU, US, Russia, China, Brazil, India, Arabs and other of that kind ect... are only going to take advantage of Bulgarian resources by paying nothing of real value but make nice promises. 217982 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217980&post_id=217981#217981 jordy Mon, 06 Feb 2012 03:07:48 +0200 No, bogomil that's not true. You are probably russophile and bulgarofob and an ex communist trying to disguise himself as a socialist. Bulgaria has to fear only Russia and its imperialistic politics. The only country that is trying to interfere in our affairs has been Russia. The Western states have never been interested in our poor country. We have to play our cards smartly and be friends with them for we want to become a nice and prosperous EU state. 217981 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217980&post_id=217980#217980 bogomil Mon, 06 Feb 2012 02:22:01 +0200 Bulgaria has been secure since WW 2, and should only fear the 2 major war-loving imperialist countries: England and the US.. 217980 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217971&post_id=217979#217979 bogomil Mon, 06 Feb 2012 02:15:53 +0200 Bravo to Russia & China for their sensible veto !! The UN authorized only a no-fly zone against Libya, and what did NATO do? Started another war, slaughtered civilians, forced a regime change, and bombed everything in sight.. About time a few sane countries put an end to NATO's unending war-loving adventures.. 217979 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217975&post_id=217978#217978 Yane Mon, 06 Feb 2012 00:01:03 +0200 The communist block was knows as the 2nd world, the arab countries belong are 3rd world countries, and muslim, they have different development, she makes sweeping generalizations...meh, she prob wants to say something nice sounding, move along, american politician is talking, nothing to listen to! 217978 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217975&post_id=217977#217977 Seedy Sun, 05 Feb 2012 23:09:53 +0200 What a joke! Islamic countries have no idea of what democracy is - they're dragged down by medieval mumbo-jumbo, feudal social structures and ruled by whoever has more weapons and cash to buy loyalty. Just look at Egypt to see what a waste of time and lives their "Revolution" was, at Pakistan to see modern thinking "a la Jihadi", at Saudi Arabia to see how ignorant tent-dwellers behave with a few bucks in their pockets - the list goes on and on. Democracy was "invented" 2,500 years ago - I'm afraid the Arab countries have a few thousand years of development ahead of them before they'll even begin to grasp the concept. 217977 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217900&post_id=217976#217976 MysteryHP Sun, 05 Feb 2012 18:14:16 +0200 Looks like DP cut out of the conversation. Seems when people talk with logic and intelligence, DP can not maintain his style of chat in the conversation. :) 217976 http://www.novinite.com/forum_view.php?main_id=217975&post_id=217975#217975 ankle Sun, 05 Feb 2012 17:02:41 +0200 “The US Secretary of State said that Bulgaria has effected its transition from an authoritarian regime to democracy in an exemplary way. "It is a great pleasure to see the progress you achieved in deepening democracy," said Clinton, adding that countries from the Arab World could learn from Bulgaria. She commended the Sofia Platform initiative taken up by Bulgarian Foreign Affairs Minister Nikolay Mladenov, bringing democracy activists from the Arab countries, including those that experienced the Arab spring.According to Clinton, Bulgaria is in the position to exert influence and to spread its good example to other countries.” Surely the Americans could have said something a bit more plausible and not this garbage? Clinton should fire her speechwriter and get one that writes facts not fiction! 217975
