Who's to blame for the state of our country?

This is all our fault. No one elses.

We vote along stupid ethnocentric lines that allow politicians to do as they want. We reject the idea of democracy and allow military dictators. We think the only way to solve the problem is to make everything "Islamic" and that will solve everything. We don't vote at all. We don't expect any accountability because we've never had it. We sit and criticize the system and its corruption, but we happily pay bribes when it benefits us. We sit around and blame the CIA, RAW and the Jews for everything. We say the government doesn't do anything, while we do anything to avoid paying taxes. We refuse to invest money in our people, because we believe India is a bigger threat than illiteracy, poverty and disease. We allow foreign powers to dictate our policies so we can buy weapons. We sit and criticize the West for its immoral ways, yet we would run away there if we had the chance. We are willing to sacrifice long-term change for the sake of short-term stability. We are not willing to make a change, because it might negatively impact ourselves. We are not willing to sacrifice ourselves for the betterment of society. Everyone is only worried about either their family, community, sect, job, business, factory, NA seat. Those that try to make changes only do so for the sake of their worldview - whether it be Islamic, liberal, socialist or whatever.

We all say it's the politicians, it's the military, it's the mullahs, it's the feudals, it's the business community, it's the Indians, its the Afghanis, it's Americans or the Jews. It's never us that is the problem. And thats the biggest problem of them all.
