Integrity is perhaps the biggest thing missing in the government today. Nobody cares anymore about hard work, honesty and service. And it shows. A struggling nation with millions of citizens in anguish means that everything in the Philippines is probably rotten. The main issue is about the national treasury. Numerous individuals desire for government positions to acquire money and more money. Being an official is the easiest way to gain wealth. The responsibility to serve the country remains a campaign slogan to get elected into public office. Although many people fail to notice it, government officials promise to make things possible during their campaign days. Filipinos bear such process for years. How the nation put up with all the corruption is a big question until now.
Peace and tranquility can be deceiving for a government official. Robbing the national coffers is a daunting task. In another way, admiration can be given to these elected individuals for taking the time to unleash their abilities to acquire the money of the Filipino people. Tricks and techniques become methodical so as to erase all tracks of internal investigations should suspicions and accusations arise. These persons wake in the morning energized by the wealth they accumulated throughout their so-called service in the government. They have the latest cars. Their children goes to the best schools. They go on vacation abroad. But who can blame them? Life is hard. They have to make sure that the lives of their families are well taken cared of. It is a natural thing for these cockroaches to thrive on the resources which they never earned. They feast on the hardships of the Filipinos, not taking into consideration the difficulty of the citizens to be rewarded of their keep.
While most of the citizenry live below poverty line, the leeches sitting on top of the government benches enjoy the comfort of their big houses and abundant food. Their wealth can probably feed off numerous generations of their families. And they are doing these at the expense of the entire nation. Forget about conscience. Forget about integrity. Once in service, the bills and the coins start to pile in. Who says working as an elected official is a white-collared crime? There is a lot to enjoy when an individual becomes a leech right there and then. Perks and bonuses are like flowing water. Almost instantly, these things start pouring in. Ah, corruption, acquiring wealth in through the pen and the paper. It is the greatest job in the world. There are many places around the countryside who have leaders wearing fashionable clothes, drive in expensive cars, throw lavish parties, spend their time abroad, and yet their areas of responsibility are covered in dirt and mad. These cockroaches have a lot of balls to roam around town and show off their wealth for everybody to see.
Whatever is happening around the country seems to be insignificant. While many elected people care, there still a lot of work to be done. Deserving government officials have a long way to go. They still have a lot to do. But the most important contribution that they can give back to the citizenry who voted them upfront is by weeding out their ranks with all the undesirable and corrupt leeches. It is a big job to consider. But it is the only way to clean up the government of its acts of corruption. Officials, good and the hood, have been working side by side for decades. Once elected, it is just impossible for the citizens to remove these cockroaches from public office. All the Filipinos can do is endure. It is now in the hands of the deserving people in the government to take out those persons who have nothing to show but gold and more gold. Can an individual sleep peacefully knowing fully well that many people outside his grand mansion are lying on dilapidated shanties and empty boxes laid out on the streets? Oh, sleeping for them has never been better. Who cares about the poor people? None maybe. Cockroaches and leeches never believe in God. They only go to church to please the watching eyes of their neighbors. But time happens to one and all. It will be quick, and it will be without warning. Wrath comes in like lightning. It is only a matter of years or months or hours or even minutes and seconds before rewards for deserving leeches and cockroaches are handed down.
