No concern for Elections ... greatest irony

Will you choose the good available vegetables when you go to market or say that I do not buy any vegetables because they are not the best?

I recently thought about how many times do I check my salary account in a month ... once, twice, thrice ...... may be twice: once when it is credited with salary and the second time when my ATM rejects my card to dispense anymore money.....
This made me think about this blog. I check my money minimum of 24 times a year, how many times do I check my 30% money that I deposited with the government? Not able to get what I talking, it is the tax I paid as Income Tax: let alone VAT, service tax etc be not counted.....
I may argue ... I may say I have a choice .. afterall it is my money .. I do not care... what is your problem...
My problem is: by not bothering about it I am allowing my money to be used for anything... it can land into corrupt politicians pocket and may fly away to Swiss Bank...

This is irresponsible behaviour for 2 reasons
1. I do not perform my duty of spending money on rightful deeds (This can be called not performing duty)
2. I allow it to flow into wrong hands (This can be called callousness towards the society)

After all this, what is my right to in saying we can not correct the society, we are fuelling it by not questiong, once in 5 years also!!!!!.....
I do not recommend to vote to any party but, you can still vote as per the conciousness. Alternately, you can question the working of the govenment through various forums, unless we talk no one listens, silense is called half agreement.....

I will close the blog with a simple question that I asked at the beginning ....

Will you choose the good available vegetables when you go to market or say that I do not buy
any vegetables because they are not the best?
