「 The Soul Has Spoken. 3:18 AM 」
This post is not made to support anyone,oppose anyone,in response to anyone nor finding people to flame me or support me...it is to get tis load off myself whenever the topic of politics is spoken,just like the lecture today.

-p.s: do bear in mind tat all are only MY opinions,and may not necessary be true

What is the 2 main groups in a country?A form of governance and the citizens. The citizens work and live in the country,and the government work to keep the country in order. What order? To allow development, to ensure the social and economical well-being of a country. However, it cannot be denied that the work of politics is always an issue in all countries.

Politics in a country refer to the struggle between the various organisations,or political parties, so as to be able to govern the country. In a democratic country, the political party is chosen by the population, the citizens. Thus, the people always have the right to vote and choose who they want to lead them(choosing does not necessarily means it is always fulfilled,but to push the politics meter a teeny weeny bit to 1 side).

Now lets talk about Singapore. I shall discuss the people in the form of the general masses, those that u see often in the streets, not the rich nor the poor,but the average. From the eyes of one who have seen the work of youngsters,teenagers and some adults alike, i feel that the people are generally more selfish in their thoughts and actions(of course there will be exceptions), people who push blames to others,people who reeks wif arrogance at the slightest achievement, people who abuses the weak, etc etc. therefore, the government MUST adjust its policies to suit the country,to make sure that the country is secure, is in order. Thus, the government policies can tell one the general, or more dominant characteristics of the people. IF...i said IF because i am creating a scenario here, the government is considered to be bad and corrupted, it only means that the people is bad and corrupted. It works both ways. In the case of Singapore, if the people are selfish, the government MUST have policies so that the selfish will not be able to exploit others and take advantage of them. Thus, laws and preventive policies are set so that people are kept in check, so that the order of the country is kept. After all, the chinese saying,'to remain safe even if the door is left wide open at night', does not apply in modern society.

I am sure that everyone have at one point of time or another,heard of this phrase,'power corrupts the human soul'. Therefore,the more power,authority,control a person have,the more evil his actions will be,is that true?I noe tat it is true for myself. Tat is why i always refrain from allowing myself to accumulate too much power,lest i lost control of myself. Then,i will not be the original me. However,i cannot deny that many acts of human atrocities are due to the fact that they have the power to make people suffer without themselves having any side effects(to deal wif the law etc etc). Therefore, power can corrupt the human soul

On another note,is it power that corrupt the human soul, or or is it power that awakens the evil side of humans?i choose to believe the latter. It is not possible that one becomes darth vader,unless there is a darth vader inside him. Since we are all humans, that will mean that all humans have a dark side in them,some are on the exterior and some in the interior. Thus, to have peace, humans must go extinct,no?

However, are we the only one with the dark side? How about other organisms, the adorable dolphins, or the devilish shark? Every organism are guilty of consuming another so as to ensure their own survival. Now tat sounds like a correct thing now,harming another. Lets get back to humans. We do not eat other humans(though some ppl do),but we kill them,or disable them so that we are able to reign superior. Natural selection happens among species, it also happens among we humans. Therefore, life is to continuously kill off the weaker ones and develop into better species,natural selection hv to take place. It is the nature of life.

In conclusion, if one does not want politics to happen, all life forms are to be extinguished,becos life seeks to hv more power,and more power decays the morality of life forms.(tis may be far off from my last few paragraghs, but seems to link:P)

For people who have displeasure viewing this post, please do not start an argument. I prefer a discussion,with acceptance of ideas from both sides. So,yeah,tats bout all
