Once elected, you are guaranteed employment by the government and enjoy all the amenities that is yours to spend, including the secret bank account called pork-barrel. One politician I know said "ari man lang gali damo cuarta sa gobierno". Check the lifestyle of your politicians now! Above all, once these politicians get rich and powerful, they become untouchable and unrepentable. And this my friend is the problem in the Philippines; too much politics, and too many corrupt and greedy politicians. Tranparency does not exist in the governmet. Why? Because you tolerate these politician's bad habits. There is saying back home (Iloilo) : "OK lang na si boss kay bisan nagapanakaw, guina tagaan man kita". My friend, the end does not justify the means. And therefore, you need to change the system. Your present governent is fine; just prosecute the corrupt ones and have good a government that works for you. God Bless... To become a politician is a lucrative business in the Philippines.
