VileTouch Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 We have the best congress money can buy, and rest assured to anyone currently not living under a corrupted government, that you will be bought and sold soon enough. that's like saying "you have the best love money can buy" <_< you cannot "buy" the congress with money like you "buy" a hooker (at least you are not supposed to) it's a matter of trust, not filthy power; trust that they would always do what's right even at their own expense...but hey, with that mindset (not just you, most people, really) you can't complain that you have hookers making the laws that you live by.

calguyhunk Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 (edited) Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than500 employees and has the following statistics?............................................The lower house in the Indian parliament, the Lok Sabha has 543 members, at least 186 of whom are criminals and come with similar if not worse record. Murder, attempted murder, rape, abduction, arson, rioting, assault and aggravated battery, hit and run, drunk driving, sexual and professional harassment, drunken and disorderly conduct, misappropriation of funds, insider trading, tax evasion etc. are just some of the charges against them. :nono:Here's the complete list. :(Politicians are just puppets...The ones who really govern are not ever elected...EXACTLY that! :thumbsup:This is just the tip of the iceberg. Everyone knows they are crooks and most of them have done much worse behind closed doors.Very sad state of affairs but I'm sure that the US is not alone.You can say that again :yes: Edited June 8, 2014 by calguyhunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Owl Posted June 8, 2014 Author Share Posted June 8, 2014 Do you really think I am unaware of that? but with a country that is only slightly above unlawful chaos that allows girls to be raped and their rapists walk free until the people of india get a grip and start to enforce the lawful society you were left and the greed is driven out do you expect different? Only people that can change that is the people of India Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masterupc Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Why politicians?Let's go for anarchism. Too much power within a little group of people turns for the worst for sure. Power evenly given to everyone (anarchism) leads to a better outcome... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
