Part one: Our Government

About a month ago I came across an interesting short article called 'Quebec Provincial elections 2007," written by a friend of mind (I will not mention his/her name). Personally, I hate politicians for their lack of justice and the abuse they allow to proceed. Fighting a war we have no purpose to step in. Providing a neighbour with too many soldiers to fight for their cause and then pray that we don't get attacked. They hide in their shadows, under the desk, behind the walls of their guarded home. They seize our money to build useless theme parks, unreliable bridges, and the rest of it goes into their pockets. We work hard to get paid and to survive. But where does the money go? It is a cycle. The money we earn goes right back to the government. How do they support us? Let's see, the price of gas has more loops than a roller-coaster, the price of food keeps increasing and the poor and homeless collide to devastating numbers. I understand that not everyone can please every single person, but you say that you will guide us, protect us and feed us. How about doing so?
The problem with politicians is that they are all crooks. They don't give a shit about the people, at least most of them don't. They could care less about us. When they look at us they see a minority, but we are the majority. We are what balances this world and those around us. They see themselves absorbing a great amount of power and authority that they become engulfed into it. This power takes over them and before you know it they go the opposite ways from what they promised before the elections. I, for one, hate the government for many reasons of course.
The only reason Mario Dumant came in third was because people felt betrayed by Charest, who didn't, and they don't want a separation. Now, this is democracy, but how do you know that the votes aren't fixed. Corruptive. Greed. Power. Authority. Activists. Rebel. Crime. Hatred.
Who are we? We are the people. We are unity and only we can guide this ship in the right direction. I am not calling for anarchists, I am calling for justice. Is it right or wrong to mourn for soldiers who go out there and fight for our country. Die in vain, in a cause they do not belong. They could be at home with their family, a safe place. However, these brave men decide to enlist in the army. If we were attacked, by all means fight for us, but we were not attacked.
To be continued....
