Ha! What Government?
There are a few things that have to be said. The 'Government' in England brings children up with the ideas that you should keep promises, that you should tell the truth; that your word is your bond. However, when it comes to the political those "P.I.P's" (People In Power) forget that and keenly back stab and lie to the grand population, oh and each other. "Well politics is a dirty game" someone told me. But are the lives of thousands of people really something to play around with? Is it not time that these spoilt little rich kids, who grew up to run a country, learn the meaning of the words; poor, needy, cold, starving? Is it not time that a group of people who know what they are doing ran the country? OR is the English population just going to sit back and let the biggest injustice we have ever known happen right under our noses? The Lib Dems once promised an end to broken promises, now the poorest people in the country have to pay the most to get England out of this cesspool of debt that the rich people got us into already. Are you going to sit there while those greedy people make the problems worse? OR are you going to stand with the people against the injustice are we going to cry out with a united belief that we want an end to the days of suffering? If so; start the revolution, and help Britain's poorest to live the life they should be living without all this political jargon. The people has the right to speak and actions must be taken.

Fair point. But revolution is harder to do than just standing strong - gone are the days when you could march on the homes of aristocrats brandishing torches and pitchforks. Also, with a democratically elected government, chosen, at least in part, by the people, it's hard to justify any revolution. But yes, this government most certainly needs to do more for the poor than it does already.
ReplyDeleteThe problem with our society is not necessarily the incompetent or uncaring nature of the government but its relative weaknesses. We live in a consumer society - a society in which virtually everything is based around services of one kind or another, and we have virtually no industry. This is because, as people, we've come to expect to live in a world where we, the British, don't have to do the laborious, industrial tasks that we used to do. Instead we just shovel most of our manufacturing on places like China, etc. And any government that tries to change this, to alter this consumer lifestyle, will become enormously unpopular and will not stay in power for long. Since governments are motivated by power, this isn't going to happen. So it's a vicious circle. Want to change society or the government? Change your lifestyle.
