Thick, Thick, Thick

             I cant understand why our Beloved President spent all that moolah to go to Zurich when she could settle everything in Davos. It’s not like our Economy’s going to spring forth from the ashes after attending all the conventions she deems necessary for Economic growth. On the contrary, contradictory if you must. All the money she spent can be put to better use like feeding the starving and famished or better yet, investing in Education or Businesses that would employ our idle working force, if there’s such a term.

             What’s in Zurich anyway? It’s popular for the Bank Accounts (repeat: BANK ACCOUNTS), but I’m not aware of anything else. Dean Arcilla even mention a chartered PAL Airbus or Boeing. Well, yeah Heads of State need bragging rights, but that’s if every citizen you serve eats at least three times a day. Going to international "conventions and meetings" is not what you’d call Public Service. It’s Self-Service, much like fast-food chains and self-service we have because the people we elected to serve us do not. 

             Our Great Leader even mentioned that the recession in the United States would barely affect us. WHAT??! I’d know that even if I’m not in Ma’am Nalangan’s class. So would the poor people (I’m not saying I’m not poor) who feel poverty eating their intestines every painful day of their lives. Poor them. All they can do is curse the wretched politician, blah, blah, blah, they put there in the first place.

             There are a lot of things we can do to make this country better. We just need to realize our priorities and muster all the strength and courage we have to make the changes, however painful. I guess all we can do now is tighten our belts and look as our beloved country our heroes painstakingly fought for crumble into dust Economically.
