Today I have read a post about corruption.
I agree with all arguments explained there.
I would like to make a reflection. Spain is a country where Corruption is the best chance to be richer or to live in the best conditions.
I am fed up of reading, watching these kind of news. Not only are the politicians, but also the trade unions, and more people around the power. All who are speaking about corruption, are who have to work showing example to the population.
Corruption is bad, because whe someone is sidelined from their position, he or she lives very quiet. Someone who have diverted public funds in his/her own benefit will never have to refund all the money that he has embelezzled. This is unfair, because If I steal because I haven't got moneny to survive, surely I will have to go to the jail and pay all of that I have robbed. But they are very special persons. They will never refund all the money robbed.
Apart from this kind of people, we mustn't forget all who leak the information to make public all this information. I wonder, Are they paid by Mass Media to leak all this private information? Another case of corruption.
We are part of the European Community. Corruption are in all countries, but like here in Spain I am afraid not. In Germany, a minister resigned from her position because she had cheatend her Doctoral Tesis whe she was a student.
Our politicians should know that a lot of people are suffering problems to afford their economies, because most of them have serious problems to make-ends meet. They are cold in their behaviour. And they are only concerned about their own business and economies.
Going to the Jail is not the mos appropiate solution because with levies, our society is feeding up them. And this one is unfair.
Solution: Refunding all the money.
But to avoid Corruption problems, our country should have a big change. New rules, and more sensitivity towards the society.

(1) You "rob" a house or a person, but not money. You have to "steal" money.
Is there anything individuals can do? Do companies have public codes of ethics that they claim to follow?
The Spanish people are looking forward to see that justice is the same for all.
DeleteRoberto, unfortunaly Justice is not the same for all. The day that Justice is the same for all, our contry will change., but I see that day so far.
DeleteThe key is fighting for equality in justice, it's the only exit
DeleteNO JUSTICE, NO PEACE.

ReplyDeleteThanks Matt.
ReplyDeleteCorruption IS in all countries, but (like here in Spain I am afraid not)(?) I wanted to express: La corrupción está en todos los paises pero como en España me temo que en ninguno. In all countries we can find corruption, but I think that here in Spain, where all politicans steal, divert money, leak information to journalist .... all in their own benefit no.
In Spain I suppose there will have some public codes of ethics, but I am afraid that anyone follows. The example is on the news. In the private companies is the same.
Sometimes I think that we would be in the European Comunity. What example are they showing to the future generatiosn? ( Good subject for another post ;) )
"Corruption is in all countries, but not like it is in Spain."
ReplyDelete"I fear that the corruption in Spain is far worse than that in other countries."
It seems that "endemic/endémico" would be a good word to apply here.
Providing food for thought:
DeleteAre we unfortunate for having corruption? or
are we fortunate for uncovering scandals?
Good point. We'll never eliminate it altogether, but we have to continually work against it, never accepting it or cooperating with it.
