It is not only leaders that are irresponsible as most of us seems to think. Most of us are irresponsible people in this country. Leadership is irresponsible because the followship is irresponsible. The followship is irresponsible because the leadership is irresponsible. It is only in this country that no one can say he is a contributor to the national wealth of the nation.

This country to me is a bank. However, it is not the conventional bank you know, but a strange kind of bank. In this bank, when you look at the desk of the receiving cashier,there is no queue of customers paying in money. However,if you look at the desk of the paying cashier, there is a long queue of people shoving each other to be paid money they did not pay in. Because the bank is only paying, but never receiving, it will soon go bankrupt.

This country is a society of hunters and not of farmers. In a society of farmers,people pay tax to the soil - they till the soil and plant their crops which they harvest during the season of harvest. But in a society of hunters, no one pay tax. Hunters go out with their bows and arrows,sticks, catapults,spears and guns to shoot wild animals they do not know how they came to be in the forest. Those with guns and great hunting skills are likely to return home with more games than those with mere sticks and poor hunting skills. Those with poor hunting skills knowing they did not breed the animals that were shot, dared not challenge the great hunters that are about exhausting the animals in the forest. In a society of farmers, let anyone dare go to the community farm and harvest all the crops to his barn and see what the response of the farmers would be!

Reason with me!!!
