Just picking up from where I left, the most hated
word of the season seems to be Corruption. That made me thinking, what happened
to the people who were saying just a few years back “I don’t care if somebody
takes some money as long as he does the work”. Why the sudden change of heart?
Then I realized that it’s all about extent. Another
typical example is gold. A 100% pure gold is useless, it’s just Au, its soft
like lead and you can’t build anything out of it. To make something with gold
you have to add some impurity to it and whether you like it or not, you have to
accept it. We are happy as long as the impurity is in the range of 99% (24
carat), 92%(22 carat) or even 75% (18 carat). But you will not accept it if it
goes below that. So you see; the question is not about pure or corrupt, the question
is about how corrupt it is.
People voted for the UPA-I government even though
there were serious allegation of corruption against them. Why? Because at that
point of time; corruption was not having direct impact on their life. But the
extent of corruption of UPA was so high that by 2013 it had eaten into the
vitals of the nation. As a result there was a direct impact on the AAM Aadmi. Prices
were soaring, Gas cylinders were getting scare and suddenly the Aam Aadmi
realized that corruption is BAD..
Wake up. The highly celebrated AaM Aadmi gives
too hoots about corruption as long as he is getting his basic necessities
right. Give him a few more subsides and a few extra cylinders; he will forget
about corruption in no time. I don’t blame him, because that’s why he is Aam
Aadmi.
And that is why I can’t vote for that Aam Aadmi
to rule this nation. You need to see beyond the horizon to take a nation to
greatness. And I seriously doubt that a Aam Aadmi, or a pretender of an Aam
Aadmi have the capacity to think beyond the obvious.
Think about it
