We did it! Yes we all did it again! We all have been successful in making mockery of elections in Mumbai; where the voters turnout was merely 44.15%, less than 2004 which was 47.15. What a boomerang of the hype of 'Vote Campaign'. We turnout in thousands to lit candles and give huge statements, if we are hit by some crisis, but fail to deliver at the place where it is much needed.
Actually, it's not our (people) fault that we don't come out and vote, the reason for such sad results is the outcome of democracy, that we have been seeing till date. Even if we come and vote; whom should we vote? What has democracy given us till date? Rights to few morons to govern us who don't know what 'governing' is? Rule of 51% in power who say that the rest 49% is wrong? In the first place what is democracy? Is it having anything that we want??? If yes, why do we always end up having something reverse! Why there have been shoe throwing incidents on all the leading leaders of political parties?? How many times will we waste every 5 precious years of life??
In a country like India where we have so many parties and each one have different reasons and opinions to come into the power; where does fair voting of majority considered?? Is this democracy??? People were happy even during the regime of kings and Badshahs. There was sense of goodwill and responsibility even then. Then, why waste so much money and time contesting and setting up a government???
It is high time that India comes up with powerful one man dictator or military person who have high regards for the country and its people, than electing these @$$ #0les, who know nothing then filling their own pockets! I am sure this will bring some discipline and sense of responsibility amongst the people of India.
Here are few quotes on democracy:
"Democracy means simply the bludgeoning of the people by the people for the people".
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) Irish poet and dramatist.
“A democracy is a government in the hands of men of low birth, no property, and vulgar employment”
Aristotle quotes (Ancient Greek Philosopher, Scientist and Physician, 384 BC-322 BC)
“Democracy consists of choosing your dictators after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear” Alan Coren quotes
