Ukraine has long been known for pervasive corruption. Yet, the current US-backed regime in Kiev takes the cake - or rather, it steals it from disabled children.
Ukraine is so corrupt, Joe 'attaboy' Biden commented that corruption was "
eating Ukraine like a cancer." He should know too, after one of his sons
cashed in on the firesale of state assets following the US regime change operation there in 2014.
Not to be outdone, the first lady of Ukraine, Marina Poroshenko, is embroiled in a
corruption scandal of her own. The country's Ministry of Justice
suspects her involvement in a money-laundering scheme with funds meant for the families of children with disabilities. If true, it sounds like she could be a viable candidate for Ukraine's next president. She could do lunch and compare schemes with that haggardly has-been Hillary.
But the Ukrainian First Lady is probably just taking her lead from her husband. President Petro Poroshenko and his supporters have been making moves to do away with the country's anti-corruption bodies, drawing criticism even from
the West. The head of Ukraine's anti-corruption committee, Yegor Sobolev, has recently been dismissed. He condemned the move saying, "
the former and present corrupt elite have colluded. Their plan is to break the independence of anti-corruption bodies and replace them with fake ones." To make matters worse, Western governments have dumped millions of their citizens' tax-dollars into Ukraine's anti-corruption programs, with the result being... more and more corruption. Amazing!

It is true though that many areas of Europe (and even in the US) that have a history based in the Christian tradition have seen the numbers of those attending church, and their beliefs in general, dropping dramatically:
