I HATE POLITICS!

Above is a photo I’ve taken during election time at Angeles City. I used my old poorman’s 1.3 Megapixel camera phone to get this photo, hence, the poor resolution.

 The one being referred to as “SANTA CLAUS” is a candidate for a position in congress. He called his opponent “KUHOL” (kuhol means snail), because he thinks his opponent looks like a local pseudo celebrity we call KUHOL because his mouth resembles that of a snail’s.

 I just hate politics. And here are some of the reasons why.

1. It sickens me whenever I see that children of political scum get endorsed for positions that they are not even qualified for. Why do they always get ahead? Are they really that special?

2. It sickens me whenever some person of some political power tries to use his so-called powers to influence people around him so they could bend down to his will. Case in point, Mr. *******************************************… No I won’t mention his name here. I don’t want to die any day soon.

3. It sickens me whenever I see my payslip. They subtract Php 7,200 a month from my salary as tax, but do I see where my tax money is going? No! I don’t see new infrastructure, new schools, or even new books for public schools for that matter. All I see are congressmen, mayors down to barangay captains getting greedier and greedier by the milisecond.

4. It sickens me whenever I see opposing parties try to overshadow each other. All politicians are airheads. They all want to be the best ones in everything, never wanting to see other people succeed for it might belittle them in the eyes of the public.

 I hate it.
