Everyone: Tell McDonalds to stop stealing workers' pay.

With Putin, Russia has fallen victim to the "resource curse".

Unfortunately, the US is also subject to the resource curse. (Look at those who think it is a good thing that US extraction of fossil fuels has risen.) "Autocratic government, systemic corruption and developmental stagnation affecting the general population, combined with extravagant wealth on the part of controlling elites" describes US politics today.

And it's even more so in Canada and Australia.

You could say that the world as a whole has fallen victim to the "resource curse".

The European Union has given meat companies more power to divert infected animals back into the food chain.

Snowden told the Council of Europe that the NSA intentionally spied on leaders of human rights organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch.

The US increasingly keeps mentally ill people in jail rather than treating them in hospital.

I suppose this results from politicians' trying to look tough.
