As it is, Most of us do not seem to be worried about it. And here I am, giving a 'reminder' to the effect!
Most of us do not worry about Corruption because it does not seem to touch our lives. We do not seem to be affected by it.
Among those who use the Facebook, Twitter, and read Blogs, etc, Most are 'Well to do.' They have their Businesses, or Good Jobs, perhaps working abroad, and might even use a little 'palm grease' to get things done. All in all, No Real Harm in Corruption, is what we seem to think.
Ok, consider this. Just recently, two Luxury Buses caught Fire, and as far as I understand, ALL the passengers in them died. As I said, Just Recently. You can, or maybe Should, look it up. Owners of luxury buses are not poor people. To have put up the requisite Safety set-ups was not beyond their reach. It was just Carelessness on their part. The Philosopher would say that is Corruption.
And 'Today's' News says that a 55 year old 'Actor' died, falling into an Open Ditch in, if I am not mistaken, Bangalore. It was Open because they had dug it up to 'Repair' it, and Just Clean Forgot to put up Markers to warn those using the Road at Night, etc. ...During the report, there was also some mention of a 2 year old dying in a separate incident.
Now are WE Sure that that will not happen to Us?
We have our famous scams in India: The 1.76 Lakh Crore scam over the 2G, the Coalgate of India, laloo prasad's 1000 crore scam over Cattle feed, ...Well, You know it.
But contractors try to save a few Hundreds/Thousands, which would be needed to put up decent markers to warn of open ditches. If You do not think this is Corruption, and that it would Not affect Your life, ...I am Speechless. And, by the way, the 'mayor' very kindly said that NO action would be taken against the contractor.
I am fighting for You! I walk, Or travel by Town Buses, which, travelling at some 30 kmph, will not cause much damage even if involved in an accident. I am fighting for You!
Well, Folks! Corruption DOES affect us. Many times it takes our Lives. And that of our Dear Ones.
DO let us Worry about corruption. DO Speak out.
One Very Good Way to do this would be to Join and Support the +AAP, the +Aam Aadmi Party.
