Powerful people become rich
We must note that powerful people become rich and they remain rich because they do not allow power to go out their hands. Money makes the mare go and when these people become rich, they take the power in their own hand and they try to keep the poor as poor . It is on record that wealth cannot be there in the country till these poor people work and create wealth. But this wealth which the poor create never goes in the hands of common people. This wealth is snatched away by the powerful people in one way or the other and thus the poor people are kept illiterate, unemployed and poor. We know that once a family is left poor, they shall never be allowed to grow rich. This is the economic structure in each country.
In some countries they have adopted this democratic set up and they are pronouncing that they are electing people from amongst the people and these elected people work for the common people of the country. This is totally a wrong and false declaration. The election system is very costly and only rich people can take part in elections. The common people of the country are just voters and they are invited once in a period of four to five years and they are just to cast their votes and once they drop th vote paper in the box they are pushed back to suffer for the next tenure.
They do not know who is elected and for whom he shall work. The people elected are rich people and they are serving the rich people and all their policies are rich oriented. They do not work for the common people because they are not committed to serve the people. If we conduct a survey in all the countries, we shall come to the conclusion that only rich people are in the race and common people are just voters.
Therefore, we shall have to accept that the governments established in all the countries are not democracies, but these are actually governments of the rich, by the rich and for the rich and that is the reason in most of the countries only the rich are running to this line and they are taking politics as a profession, trade, calling and employment. They are investing money and they are earning money and nothing more. That is the reason the politicians and the people for whom these politicians are working are turning rich and powerful and the common people are being reduced to more and more poverty.
In the past only powerful people had been ruling over the people in each country and in spite of introduction of democracy, the same people are on the fore-front and they are occupying seats of power. This is only the change of name of government and therefore, we shall have to accept that 'for forms of government only fools contest'. We should not accept this democracy as the final system because common people are still slaves and they are not having any right even in democracies established in all the countries. They are just given right to lead a low life, always worrying for the next time food. They are actually starving and are utilizing second hand articles which the rich had utilized. They are not given proper accommodation, proper clothes, proper facilities in the house, proper wages, proper salaries and the like and that is the reason they are not able to train their wards properly. Once a poor always a poor is the final verdict of the time and we must accept this final verdict. Democracy where the people in power shall be considering themselves as the public servants, is still a far cry for the people.
