If Politicians are bad...

When i was in JNU there was a saying written on the walls ," If you call the politicians donkeys, you will ultimately be governed by the donkeys". Politicians are the reflection of society and if they are a blot, actually society itself is not better. Lets consider the common people around us. A clerk wants bribe to take action on any file.A postman wants sweets to deliver the important mail. A policeman wants u to give 100 rs to him instead of paying 500 rs fine. A doctor will somehow make sure that you keep visiting him frequently. So basically everyone is making money or trying to make money.Than why we call shit only for our Netas. 


  The problem is just that we are jealous of them because they are making big bucks. But after all they come after spending huge money at put their life at risk in this process, so i feel they also deserve this .Because except the size, they are doing the same thing what rest of the society is doing .When anyone close to us gets elected we are happy that our tasks will be done easily, but when it is not the case and someelse is being benifitted we cry for corruption.

 I m not trying to justify whats politicians are doing today. The point i want to make is that , the way we are, we do deserve this.  The simple solution to this problem is that more clean people join the politics. But it will be possible only when there are more clean people in the society. So ultimately what turns out is that we need to correct ourself and than expect anything from others or in this particular case from politicians....
