was it all meant to be?

The people are usually willing to give the government the benefit of the doubt. Be positive, all they are doing is in the interest of the people. They have all the smartest asses in the country and they deserved to be there, administrating. It's for the best.

Well, is it true or too good to be true? Was it all ethical with not a single intention to benefit their own private ends?. I can't be sure. I have no answers to all of that but the impact is right in front of me.

saturday, few weeks ago. we co-organized a career fair specially orchestrated for retrenched workers and jobless graduates. flabbergasted by the number of jobseekers turned up on the fateful day, i knew that it sent a crystal clear message to us all. the unemployment rate is increasing, alarmingly. and weeks later, while enquiring for some information from a government agency, i was furnished with some shocking truths. truths being concealed by our leaders. the harsh reality being sugar-coated on a daily basis with promises or simply, lies.

what was in the 1st stimulus package? it was not really instrumental. not surprisingly, the heatwave from the economic turmoil had sent us running to the air-conditioned, plush offices of goverment agencies. companies seeking funds in order to survive left empty-handed. and for those small traders, we ain't got nothing for them.

and this friend told me that all we could do is, wait. wait until obama succeeded in turning what america is experiencing around, sooner. if he fails, let us all pray. for the future of our children.

p/s : a friend called me the other day. looking for a job. find the time and come over buddy.
