It would appropriate to quote one old saying, possibly originated in armed forces of a certain country: "do not rush to execute an order, it will likely be canceled"

I've lived in a couple of countries where bribes are a way of life. I'm happy it's not the case in CA.

Still, does anyone here know of a country, where artificially limiting resources do not encourage to bribes? Better yet, if somebody names a country, where bureaucrats are by law forbidden to limit the resources artificially, I'll strongly consider immigrating.

Bitcoin crypo (sic!) in the title is funny.

Update: cool, the title is fixed, this comment downvoted.

A nice one by Julius Comroe:

    “Serendipity is jumping into a haystack to search for a needle, and coming up with the farmer’s daughter.”
