YES WE CAN... RIP YOU OFF

A politician in Croatia has been elected mayor of his town after running on a platform of total honesty. In fact, he was so honest that he promised the voters that if he was elected he would rip them off at any opportunity. Using the slogan “All for me - nothing for you” Josko Risa convinced the citizens that they might as well vote for him because he wasn’t going to lie about his corrupt politics. “We’re going to get ripped off no matter who takes over,” rationalized one voter. “At least he’s being honest and up front about it.” (Ananova)
