The Issue

We don't need more politicians on the payroll. We need MORE WORKERS. We don't need more decision makers. We need more DECISIONS MADE/WORK DONE. Further subdivision only cause more inefficiencies in govt.

How much is the salary of a congressman in a mo.? Php295,191. This computes to  Php3.84M in a year including 13th month. In 3 years the Filipino People spend Php11.51M for one person alone. How much is the salary of an average wage in earner in Bulacan? Php10,400. This means that the support of this person could mean the wages of 1107 months of an average worker. If we multiply this by 6 which is the average Filipino family, it may mean the food on the table for 6642 people in a month. Does the work of congressmen, really impact the lives of average residents and voters of Bulacan? We are not talking yet of the budget for their office, and most of them have a huge coterie; AND the PORK BARREL, these people seem to think is ENTITLED to them.  

By 2022, the LGU budget will balloon by 45% (Mandanas ruling). Let us BE SMART about this.
