Has any body seen a politician in any queue be it sugar fuel gas or milk powder or anything.How do they and their households receive these products without hindrance. Amazing no wonder people crave to do politics.

Do not underestimate the people's power as they can obtain support of the guardians of the law to join forces to eradicate the rulers like in Philippines
