This is a scale of oppression that is every inch like that before Edsa. This is a government that has screwed public welfare at every turn, elevating personal interest into public policy. Tama na, sobra na. The next line there of course is palitan na. Where there's a will, there's a way.
Faith can, and does, move mountains.
Moral outrage is a force unto itself, finding ways to express itself, like water seeking its own level, or streams pushing out into the sea. It can compel politicians, if only out of fear of an irate electorate, to move to impeach the President, or at least to not stand in the way of that rampaging flood. It can compel the presidential allies, if only like rats jumping out of a sinking ship, to abandon a lost cause and be of some use to the nation, however unwittingly. It can bring a whole people to rise out of their passivity and cynicism and despair and do the seemingly impossible thing. Halfway across the globe, in Yugoslavia, people have done what seemed to have been impossible only a couple of weeks ago.
