(back then)
was being revealed one after another, The youngest clerk in my office suddenly asked me that what this Governor have done. I tried to explain the outline simply; how this Governor was discovered of appropriation of state vehicle and government practices expenses and spent for private travel and shopping. Precisely speaking, the beginning of the problem was too high overseas business trip expense. Then, the clerk said that plainly speaking, what this Governor did was almost the same as the famous prefectural assemblyman who spread recognition about government practices expenses
. You would recognize a prefectural assemblyman who suddenly wailed hysterically at a press conference and publicly embarrassed himself.
I suppose it's what I could write because I'm NOT a qualified voter in the capital prefecture. As reported, Governors of capital prefecture have resigned one after another due to similar problems related with money.
But it's wrong to blame just voters; wrong choice is always possible
. And it's nothing new that candidates deceive voters shrewdly and run for elections at timing when media cannot report unfavorable things. The best ideal is capable and sensible politician, but in the meantime: May I question how people who voted for this Governor think now? Some might be angry that they were cheated, some might regret for their choice, -Don't blame yourself unnecessarily, just take it as an important lesson. But some might have even forgotten whom they had voted. People who didn't even vote are out of question.
Well... to tell the truth, I'm not the one who is innocent of making wrong choice at elections. So for the past few years, I jot on diary whom I voted at elections.
In short... how can we be wiser voters?
After the wailing assemblyman resigned, a by-election was heldtwo months before Now governor election in the capital prefecture is coming after the upcoming Upper House election. Just cost alone, how much is the loss?
I've decided to vote for candidates and political parties that can create society where people can live as people, But this criterion is abstract, so I might rely on elimination method again. I think it's not very difficult to decide whom to vote -or whom to outvote if we watch their usual attitude and situation
...
Is it OK to label that media provider side labels general public as dumb who have interests in nothing but craps? It's more than enough proofthat they are always caterwaul over immoral love affair and illness of entertainers even while there are far more important things to report -which is another story for today
. And is it OK to label that panjandrums want people just automatically obedient?
