What a way to fight insurgency!

How can a president of a country with immense power and enormous resources not able to make a significant dent on graft and corruption eating up her administration unless she dishes out a billion pesos? Is this the only method she knows on how to get a handle on her good governance? If shelling out big bucks (ours, especially) is her only way of plugging every conceivable hurdles (tapalan ng kuarta), why not dish out a few hundred more billions to erect tenement housing (just like what her father did during his time) for our destitute kababayans? Maybe she can dish out few more billions to encourage up and coming doctors and nurses to serve few years in these housing projects so poor people can avail needed health care? That ‘ought to give the NPA’s a dose of their own propaganda. How come Ate Glue is spending a billion for now to lick the communist when it only cost her a single bullet (isang bala lang kayo) to exterminate Abu Sayyafs? Bakit mas tigasin ba ang mga NPA’s? Maybe what she needs to do is order both Gonzales (si Raul and heart broken Norberto) to don their fatigues and lead the charge to the hills. It will be the best solution to bid the NPA’s permanent goodbyes. On the other hand, with a down payment of one billion, our generals must be sleepless now not knowing which state of the art SUV’s and sport cars to buy. To put it bluntly - ‘naglalaway na tiyak itong mga nakapila’!
