POLITICAL STAMINA

Okay... Since i have nothing better to do and I am completely bored... I will start talking more on politics! Yay! (maybe I should take political science... NOT!!). So back to why people like protesting (gee, our country is just full of lively protesters eh? Must have become a hobby for them). Anyways... I understand why people protest. Some of them claim that this person and other people are corrupt, but hey, who isn't? Some one always takes advantage of a certain situation. Like say, people getting caught and being ticketed... Sometimes the police dude demands for some payment so that you could get away with it, and those caught end up paying it. So what the policeman did was bad, but also the person who was ticketed is doing something bad, so what can one say about that? People can be pretty irrational by claiming they can change something as large as a country, when they can't even change themselves for the better. Look at Erap... How many mistresses does he have? And yet, for many people he is their idol, they believe he can save the Philippines, just like when he saved someone in his movies, he may have their votes, but for those that know better, that is just a joke.
Roco once said that when he was twenty he wanted to change the world, when he was forty he wanted to change the country, and in the end he found that he wanted to change himself (okay, not completely correct, but it went somewhat like that). Politicians claim to have plans of making the country better, either by throwing out the president, getting rid of corruption and kidnapping, making the economy better, oil rices lower, etc. About the oil prices, we people and gov't alike, have no say in that, just to clear people with cloudy brains. Economy, well... I think Gloria is doing a good job with the economy, but it is not felt by the people in the lower class, although, what she has done has alleviated some of the countrys' woes. Corruption and kidnapping, its all with the mentality of those that are corrupt and those that are lazy. Gloria... Come on, she may not be the best out there, but she is what we have for the moment, can't we be content with what we have and just try to make things better by working together and being hard working? There is really something wrong with the people's mentality if they think that something good can come in a snap.

There is a saying after all: NO PAIN, NO GAIN...
