It Takes Two To Tango

If politicians formulate their strategies considering the public as fools, then they are not entirely wrong. Because it always takes two hands to clap.

v  Despite such enormous corruption, if Yeddyurappa can garner 10% votes, then it proves nothing else but the foolishness of the public.

v  Even after the 2-G scam, if in Tamil Nadu Karunanidhi gets only 4-5% lesser votes than Jayalalitha, then the point is proven correct once again.

v  Before every election, if the BJP is able to fire up the Ram-Mandir issue, then the public is indeed foolish.

v  After depleting the country’s resources with the 2-G and Coalgate scams, if the Congress can still dream of winning the elections once again based on the Food Security Bill, then somewhere down the line, the public is only foolish. This implies...both the hands are responsible for clapping!

Why is it so...?

Because, the public accords higher importance to its petty self-interests of caste and religion, than the country. If for once the people vote for the country and rise above the party politics and rout corruption and anti-social elements, then overnight, they will fall in line. But what’s happening is completely the opposite! The corrupt and the anti-social elements are winning by much higher margins! Then assigning blame to only the politicians will be wrong. For we need to always keep in mind that it takes two to tango!
