People are a reflection of the government, likewise the government is a reflection of the people. The people are the programs running the system of every human society. Now, what is change?
What ever change is for you in a context of the society, drop it for a second. If a computer system breaks down due to corrupt software, what do you do? You delete the software, then install a new program.
The leaders of a human society are a reflection of the hearts of the people, and vise-visa. If the government is corrupt, it is because the majority populace is corrupt, and vise-visa. An interesting fact about the human nature is, most individuals do not hate injustice, they just want to be the one dishing it, or at the very least, so long they are not the ones receiving it.
If you change a corrupt system, reform it, or amend it however, yet install same old programs into it, then one has succeeded in changing nothing. Everyone is the government. The head is of the arm, the arm is of the foot.
How do you treat your employees at your workplace? What is your business ethics? Do you take part in artificial scarcity of goods & resources? Do you manipulate market prices for your own profits, while the consumers suffer the costs?
The thing is, every part of the body is important, together it makes a whole. Liberate your mind, and advocate for truth. The change is you.
