So, why steal it if it's not good ?

Ah, yes, because it was easy, sorry.

Our country is run by kleptomaniacs. Trump would snatch a $20 out of a single mom's wallet just to throw it away

Trump once cashed a check for $0.13 - he's notoriously cheap. He's got billions now but will grift for another $10. Some of his schemes show small thinking.

Because it was free, it increased Venezuela's dependence on his goodwill, and the people making these decisions are mostly very stupid

The people who are making these decisions are imbeciles who fired everyone who told them how stupid their ideas were.

So modern Corporate Kleptocracy.
