The govt has to take care of its supporters

LKY said it.He said all countries were the same.

Yes,the govt has to take care of its supporters.But the question is by what way.

Ministers are MPs too.So they have to take care of their wards,their town councils and hold the meet-the-ppl sessions.(There are other wards which don't have govt office holders to take of their contituents) Aren't these consider "taking care of govt 's supporters"?

If they don't do their duties well as MP,their constituents of course wouldn't vote for them in the next election.

Surely, PM & ministers can understand this.

All very well said, but I'm afraid the color of "their" sunglasses, are different from yours.

The old concept is that the Government have to take care of its supporters.

Can any one define what is the meaning of "take care" ?

As for the Supporters, they are all present at the Nomination Center and chanting loud and clear.

They have to apply one day leave to show their LOYALTY.

They will definitely be taken care of.

As for the rest of the people who are not there, please dun expect the same treatment as the "supporters".

You have to support with voice and action.

So, Senior is right in saying about taking care of the supporters.

If you are not one, then dun expect any "taking care" cos you have to WORK for IT.

most shareholders are small investors but their little bit of money add together is quite a sum. These people leave things to the company to use the money and do not have time for meetings. There are only a couple of big shareholders who own preference shares but they drive these meetings and also the direction of the company and such things. Of course they also drive decisions that might possibly benefit themselves at the expense of everything else.
But then I am only talking about the very simple world of finance. Laughing

If the govt set a policy which is fair to everyone,there should be no complaints -- including from the supporters of the ruling party.
