Setting an model is not the strongest means of influencing another, it is the only means.

Every time any government passes budget they just raise taxes. How come a person like janitors who were worried with the previous taxes carry on there living. Can they send their children to schools or they just satisfy on having two times meal a day?

What is the use of complaining about the budget? The real problem is our national priorities. We spend about 12% of our GDP and 60% of our national budget on the military, military pensions & benefits, debt servicing accumulated mainly due to weapons acquisition. On top of that, we spend 20% of national budget for running our bloated government. What is left is a meager 20% for human development. We made this choice by becoming a security state, so why complain?

Every year when the budget is proposed same type of discussion takes place but no govt has ever responded on the concerns of the worried public and the real COMMON MAN. Every time when there are increases in commodity prices or utility rates it is claimed with pride that the COMMON MAN has been accomodated and will not be affected . But who is this COMMON MAN, DOES HE NOT USE ELECTRICITY,GAS OR WATER does he not eat food or drink tea.Despite increases in the minimum salary there is no monitoring .Taxes are only for those who are weak enough to pay.Law makers are the worst tax evaders.I personally think that things will never improve unless this COMMON MAN wakes up and starts asserting his strength and stops voting on BARADRI SYSTEM and makes those at the helm of affairs realise that they are there due to him, therefore he needs to be respected & looked after.

If solutions are known to the masses then Govt is no exemption.My observations are not personal rather they are open and shut to every sage and educated person.Problems are known ,solutions are known but the thing is the implementation.

you said
“Everyone knows the solution even the Govt itself but truly speaking she is not willing to go for solutions.”
this is a statement which arises hundreds of questions which needs to be answered. i declare this statement is the error of subjectivity. do not assure things personally and relate it to the rest of the people.
it is correct that Our government know the problems but they do not know the solutions of these problems.
and they know because they can fight against other parties as u see in different talk shows.

and, Unfortunately, we pakistani do not know even our problems. we votes for them and than condemn them. first we have to realize the problems and them go for solution.
Pakistan does not Yes or No. Pakistan needs those people who points out the right problems and gives correct solutions.

how many people say YES or NO in their comments? 98%.

Pakistan is supporting huge government and heavy policies with an economy slightly bigger than a least developed country.On top the internal balance is tilted against the social sectors.

How long the pain can going on!

My dear brother.I just mentioned in my comment that people who wish to apply some practical solutions are discourged to such extent that they come up with their resignations atlast.Everyone knows the solution even the Govt itself but truly speaking she is not willing to go for solutions.
It is better to foresee things rather than just supporting the wromg acts of Govt.
