I am trying to list the problems which I do encounter.
1 – Too many candidates.
If I am working, I will not have enough time to know them well to be able to decide who’s the best bet. Since we are the great imitator of American Democracy, why not copy everything? Have the Senate be elected by regions. That way I’ll have fewer choices.
It is the reason why politicians crave to be at the top of the list. The first name has the best chance of being read and thereby receive a vote.
2 – Party List.
I think the real purpose for its creation is already set aside. I read a group of one profession and thought why not all sort of professionals be represented. Sari-saring grupo just to secure a seat in Congress.
3 – Women.
A lot of them. I am amazed by the irony of things. I’m hearing so much about not being well represented when many women at this point of time are filling up key positions in the government hierarchy. I do think the rightful place of women are in the homes. Our thinking is so twisted that we now believe that greatness for women can be found outside the house. When, at the very heart of this is actually selfishness. A lot of kids are growing up disobedient, rebellious and a liability to society because they are receiving no proper guidance in their homes which only mothers can provide.
