Making the poor productive (or restoring wealth); or how leaders destroy the country they lead

It is more fun criticizing

This post is alarmed at so many welfare programs in cash in form of "ayuda" that are definitely draining the treasury.    At the same time we see lack of support to the sector that pays it all:   the taxpayers... The Revenue offices and the LGU s are bearing hard on tax payers:   support for the unproductive sector of the economy and difficulties for those who generate the revenue.  Developing human resources.  Thats our purpose in life:   to develop our gifts and use it to advance the world.    Not promote dependence an mendicancy

We were taught in grad school is social philosophy that the goal of the govt is to make the poor productive and not creating a welfare state.   Social states were not productive and failed.  Look at Venenzuela to see why its economy is in shambles.

And yet this persists in the country and to fund huge social welfare programs, the country has to borrow in trillions   Wait to see the consequence

This post avoids long discourse on this topic;   its beyond the scope of this article...

While we need to help those who cant eke out their living and have challenges, most of the fund can be used to fund:   training to be more productivee, livelihood programs, increasing farm productivity.   Of course corruption has removed most of the resources for these programs

Philstar - Inflation shocks tests BSP policy directions

Higher fuel prices (external)  weakened peso and the very sharp wage increase of 12% (vs projected 5% baseline) could upset  the BSP efforts to contain the 7% inflation the country is facing.  High prices is a complaint by many sectors of the economy.  The wage increas in MM which took effect July 24 could add as much as 0.4% to inflation...

Using two govt agencies ICC to intimidate detractors and opposition at Senate is brilliant and masterful

It is more fun criticizing

The strategy   is really masterful.  The brilliant senators have no choice but to capitulate.  Take Marcoleta.    Couple that with Bendalo.   Brilliant lawyering though could disentangle the mess,  But in the meantime, Marcoleta has no choice but to stay silent inside a jail.   Bato is into hiding

A brilliant genius strategist behind the scenes?

Let us not forget the ICC;   see how the govt has even disappointed Trump regarding ICC.   

Why is such rabid strategy being used vs Senators and others standing for the truth.    Just remember, everything that is good must come to an end.  Karma is real. 

Expect revenge though, counter attack.  Do not wound the adversaries.  They will bite back

 

Inaalis na bara ng Manggahan floodway finally

It is more fun criticizing

Dapat lang.  Kasi unang babahain ay Malacanang.  Ang floodway ay dinidivert ang floodwaters ng Marikina river, at iniimbak muna sa Laguna Lake bago unti until itong inalalabas sa Manila bay.   Kung di ito ma iidivert, dirediretso ito sa Pasig River, at sa Malacanang...Bukod sa maleta, baha ng tubig ang papasok dito.

Kaya kailangan itong alisan ng bara...  (Ginagawa na yata?)

Hurry up guys the typhoons, big ones are coming and are hitting us with incessant deluge.   

Totoo kaya ito? Partner ng isang sikat na loding artista; malaki daw ang contribution sa kandidatura ng namumuno? Saan ililipat?
