The Green Project 7: Week 2 (2/2)

I am pinoy, I am Benilde, I am Active: Identify one current local issue and share your insights about it.

CORRUPTION.

Yet another issue that has been present in our society for a million years. (Weh?) HAHA. But seriously, hasn’t it been?

This brings me back to our government. Again, I’m not saying that every single one of them is corrupt, but there are a good number of officials who are.

They use the power that they have for their on benefits instead of using it to help make our country better. They’ve totally disregarded the trust and support that the people gave (and are still giving) to them.

People like them don’t deserve to be in the positions that they are in. I don’t know why people still continue to vote for them, even though they know very well that those people are taking advantage of the power given to them.

I find it saddening that people like them are the ones ruling our country. But what can I do?

Nothing.

I just hope that in the years to come, people would be smart enough to elect people who really DESERVE to be elected and to run our country. Because it the end, the things that they will do will greatly affect our lives.
