When will people ever learn? EDSA never really worked. It worked to get a corrupt president out of Malacañang but it never fixed our government. Coups never solved anything either. It just messed up businesses, traffic and people’s lives. And the fact that political leaders are leading these coups (yeah, that’s you Trillanes and you too Guingona) doesn’t really paint the picture any better. Instead of legislating and implementing better laws, you fuck up Manila Pen’s business instead. Good job!
Until people decide to really change, to no longer have a price tag on their votes, to pick leaders by merit and not by popularity (good grief, Trillanes ended up in the Senate not by merit either), until everyone decides that the change needs to happen from the grass roots, corruption will always be this gangrenous chunk of fetid flesh sitting right in the middle of our country’s government. And it doesn’t have to be the president who’s fucked up. We have fucked up senators, fucked up congressmen, fucked up policemen, fucked up military people, fucked up government employees and fucked up people who finance these fucked up people in the government. Don’t point fingers. You’re just pointing at the same fucked up people. Just up and leave and spare us the grief, goddamnit.
