Happy New Year Twenty-Ten
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
What I have seen over all these years of the Goan tumultuous politics is
that whenever a pointed solution is required or sought, we beat around the
bush far too much that the pointed agenda is lost in the heap of wasted
foliage.
:-))
Goans need to concentrate on manufacturing a 'guillotine' which will do the
same job it has done for the French Revolution, of rolling the unwanted
heads but without spilling precious Goan corrupted blood. Because if
justice must be delivered (a la Rathore V/s Ruchika), we need the blood in
circulation so that it may rot behind bars until the coup-de-grace ends the
misery.

But there is first of all a profound and radical change that we need to
work on which is the transformation of our culture from Consumerism to
Sustainability. When people begin to understand that consumerism is not
the path towards real meaning in life and contentment, and that their
very survival as a >species depends on changing direction from short-term
gains and rampant consumerism that leads to corruption an greed, only than
can we really hope of >reaching and achieving governance that is for the
benefit of the majority and policies that are sustainable.
So perhaps our first step should be to re-educate people, create awareness
and inform the masses.
Mario observes:

populace to rise up and make their voices heard in public with the demand
that at least the >current laws be respected. Changing the culture can wait
until the country can afford it.
