Business Man's Attitude and Corruption

Self made business men have the knack of recognizing the existence of money pots in opportunities around the world. Opening opportunities in third world countries brought a swarm of opportunity investors in the form of venture capitalists and latter as owners of service facilities in the developing world. Objectives at both ends were met satisfactorily, till the time when growing competition started reducing the profits. The policies of hire and fire were introduced in the developing countries without a change in the social fabric which required forgoing allegiance and fighting layoffs without a backup mechanism. Sanity gave way to greed, incompetence of onshore sought scapegoats elsewhere and deceit became widespread. Undeclared prolongation of work hours unaccompanied by wages brought stress and strain on the already delicately balanced social fabric of the developing countries. The abstract from of corruption has now gained a discernible form, it has sucked in one and all and witnessed the death of self-evaluation of right and wrong in all segments. The Businessman's chest grew broader with the millions earned but the space for the heart to beat got reduced. The desired big heart associated with a generous being was being fossiled. The gains of prosperity were for the already enriched, those that fueled them stood little to gain. Savings made during employment would serve for survival during leaner or unemployment periods, attracting a lot of body imbalances which need continuous medical care. Is this the price we need to pay?
Corruption rests majorly with those that hold power of money or decisions, its fallout on humanity if enormous and is baffling. How can misappropriations by the entrepreneurs be justified. they creep into society to spread the epidemic and unless this is cured no campaigns or passing of law will ever halt this plague.

Our campaign should be towards making the individual understand the need to follow a righteous path, refrain from siding with social malpractices and not seek malafied self-gains. Strengthening the social fabric in such a manner would automatically lead to isolation of corruption and from there its destruction. Can we achieve this? Yes we can with a little will and practice. Hope we can spread this around.
