It starts from journalist ethics and how two powers are kept apart. Im sure Croatia has some decent politicians, but means to get their voice heard is made harder, because corrupt politicians work with corporations for their own gain. Only way to defeat is to make new laws that will make such a cooperation impossible. For that you mostly need revolution and honest people in front of it.
BTW, what if you just don't pay the TV tax ? Have you had any experience with people who did that and what happened to them ? Or maybe you can classify your TV into something else ? What makes a TV ? Does computer screen with digital reciever becomes a TV ?
We have exactly one political party that is honest and which daily calls the crooked polititians and their system out, demanding for justice. But they, and their leaders are laughed upon in the media of course. They make them look like fools in the eyes of the people just so that they will disregard whatever they say.
Laws mean nothing in Croatia. If you have enough money you can get through by going through life like you are playing GTA V. Best example was one polititian that in a couple of occasions killed 5 or more people in car/boat accidents. Can you guess how much jail time did he get? 0
More extortion.
I haven't tried id but that's how it goes.
A TV becomes a TV in their eyes as soon as you get a deal with a telecommunication companies providing you subscription for TV channels. Then they know that they can knock on your door and ask to steal your money.
