Oil Prices are Up, what else'e new??

Its been going now for a while, the prices of oil continues to soar up, and particularly here in the Philippines its going to be chaos sooner or later. I'm no economist or a political science expert, but it really quite obvious that the government is not doing a good job. Arrest me guys if you want but that real story here, the current government system sucks bigtime, not only with the oil crisis but with the other stuffs as well.... here's a common man's observation.

1. Manny Pacquiao donating 3 million for the victims of Frank - I know this is a good and valiant thing, but where the hell was our president, she was in the US doing stuffs that for all I know only few would benefit from.... For those who watch the recent boxing fights and interviews of Pacquiao, when he mentioned he was donating some of his winnings, none of the stupid ass politician even volunteered giving out a share of their winnings( calling Chavit Singson and Lito Atienza)... it really sucks knowing the people appointed in office first look after themselves and last their people they swore to serve. Just a million of each from, the politician will be a great help... spare some cash and help for those who need it not your mistresses.

2. Sulpicio, filing a restraining order against the probing body: Now what would be the right of a shipping company to file suspension or setting aside the probe made against them.. It is clear they made a lame ass decision to let their ship sail, no need to blame the coast guard, the weather station.... What happen was this.... you guys were after your profit, placing cargoes in passenger vessels is not the right things.. whether it has no contaminating content.... I would hypothesize that the shipping company would be paying penalties if the shipments have not been delivered on time...thus telling the ship captain to go on sailing over rough waters... what a sad thought.

3. For the so called Fil-chinese dude, who keep on asking for change - If you want change stop writing letters or emails... just do it... Your just lucky... not all people who wants change can easily go to the US if they fail with their dreams... If you really love your place and wants it to make it a better place... sacrifice big time and dont gripe about it... stop mentioning your accomplishment and let others do that for you...

4. Oil Crisis - we have this and the government does little about it... First, do away with the Value Added Tax... by doing that you would lessen a little of the cost of Petroleum.... Second.. regulate the prices... it has been done before and can be done again.,,, Third.. Stop giving out financial subsidy to the poor, you are just making them weak and helpless.. what you giys are doing isnt helping you are just digging a deeper grave. Fourth stop approving fare increases so eaily and taking forever to approve the wage... what's your worry there your friends in the business sector may not back you up later....


5. Rice - We have the shortage?? yes or no? if yes do the job in providing more resources for the rice if no.. simply stop hording and bringing in the scare... no time for the so called panic button...

If this would be the scenario for a longer period, I might as well pray for the predicted July 18, 2008 earthquake...there might a chance that some of the rotten people here in the Philippines gets to be eaten by the earth when it opens up....
