Why the Filipino People still suffer?



It's frustrating that I can afford food I want whether I waste my money or not but back in my homeland, things are not flexible, even to a lockout person. The reason? Raising taxes for no reason. Here is the clue. Ferdinand Marcos's presidency never even tried to raise the prices of valuable commodities like rice, oil and has a program of feeding every student nationwide an that's a good deed by what most people think as a corrupt killer.

1986 was the worst year for the Philippines as the Oligarchs led by Corazon Aquino took over and returned privatization, instead of a balance power sharing in the economy. Why? Cory Aquino is from a family of hacienderos, which I deeply hate for enslaving the Filipino people and having the mentality of the Spanish Friars of greediness. That never happened in Greece and Serbia. Was they trying to give democracy a big hand or themselves? The Philippines weakened during the weakening of the Presidential powers and transferring it to oligarchs than the power sharing of the President, Speaker of the Congress and Senate President.

Why couldn't we have a radical change that makes the country a semi-presidential republic where the President has more powers than the Prime Minister but they both function to lead the state like a lot of countries do? And the Philippines need a Socialist and Capitalist market to balance the overwhelming disparity in prices and for the people to choose what kind of product they want without the impending raise of food and oil..

Without those radical changes I mentioned in paragraph 3, the Philippines would end up in a state of ''Kangkungan'' or field of water spinach in which an old Filipino saying: ''Sa Kangkungan ka pupulutin'' or you would be discovered in an undesirable place or place for losers.
