Bleak Future for Filipino Kids

We always hear the phrase, "Kids are our future" but what is the Government doing all the hard-earned taxes paid by its Citizens? Well, they go into their personal pockets. How else can they maintain their lavish lifestyle right? What's all this drama first thing in the morning you ask? Well, I am just irked that almost half of the Congressmen are going with GMA to the US for her meeting with President Obama. I feel like that's too many, does the President need that much entourage? The money could have been put to better use: for fixing the roads, public schools, housing projects and many more. It's sad to see the kids in public schools without proper well written books, school supplies and some even bring their own chair to school for lack of classroom chairs. Some even hold their classes under the trees, and no, not because it is an "adventure" or its "fun" but because they don't have a choice. There's not enough classrooms and teachers. How else can these children be the future when their own future looks bleak. Education is important; instead of fighting over CON-ASS and other Political drama, I hope the next Philippine President will focus on the job at hand.
