For years I've griped about the incestuous relationship between politicians and NGOs. I'm happy to see people beginning to take note. It's also ironic you paired your Rose post with the topic of fees. See the pattern? The blob needs money. Lots of money. Money from everyone and everywhere. What about the 29 cent delivery fees? So many fees, so many grants, so many funding sources. ALL... feeding the blob.

Try mapping the funding streams of the grants, fees, fines, etc. You'll never unravel it. But... That's the point.

You got the "mapping' right! I joke with friends that I have a basement room with newspaper clippings photos and string everywhere.

That newspaper and string trope has more value and significance than many realize. A lot of Hollywood cliche has shockingly applicable genesis.
