Lahat na nakaka-usap ko na nakikiramdam sa nangyayari ngayon sa sitwasyon pampulitika sa bansa ay nagsasabi na magbantay at maghanda ng husto sa susunod na linggo. “Mula February 25 hanggang March 31,” sabi ng isang source.

Padami-dami na ang mga sector na lumalantad at nagpapahayag ng kanilang galit sa ginagawa ni Gloria Arroyo at ng kanyang mga alipores na pagyurak ng demokrasya sa Pilipinas. Ang mga dating walang paki-alam katulad ng mga negosyante sa Makati, mga pare at madre at mga kabataan ay sumasali na.

Because it is easier to imagine it, corruption has taken center stage in the public’s appreciation of the current national crisis. Against the backdrop of mass poverty, the quantities are truly mind-boggling: $130 million in kickbacks for a government project worth $329 million, a bribe offer of P200 million for a single signature, cash gifts of half a million pesos each for politicians who attend a breakfast or lunch meeting with a President facing impeachment, half a million pesos in pocket money for a government functionary who flies to Hong Kong in order to evade a Senate inquiry, and many more. But it would be a mistake to think this is just about corruption. This is, more importantly, about the long-term damage to a nation’s social institutions.
