Its been 5 months here in ozzy. I'm not again in the mode of adapting myself, but already starting to enjoy things here. Despite enjoying things, there are certain facts that u just cannot ignore whatever it is.
Even though u can enjoy ur live in ozzy, whatever status u r. Wether as a student, a worker, a PR or even a citizen, there r limits on how much of a life u can enjoy here. Even though ozzy, as like various other modern countries in the world such as USA, UK, Japan, France and the other bunch, have a dazzling light on the infinite opportunities they can offer, their light is starting to wane away.
Where shall i start?I'll start from the one point which is oil. Its common knowledge now that oil price is soaring to unexpected levels beyond ones forecast. This has led to various rise in prices of other commodities, mainly those for fulfilling a basic needs of a person. This has led not only people in third world countris to suffer more, but people in countries mentioned above r also starting to suffer the dire consequences of the hiking oil prices.
Thats from one aspect which was oil. Other aspects concerns the the welfare of the people here. At once, I thought that the people in modern countries with their capitalism, where living in an other world. Where everything was affordable and they could buy anything to their hearts content. Where money could buy anything. But then...all those things were just a mere illussion. It turned that people here r even suffering more of the effects of capitalism. It might not seem that way but thats because the proponents of capitalism r just struggling to hide the decays of capitalism. I've seen many examples here. People struggling to get their centerlink money. Pensioners neglected by the government. Indigenous people deliberately marginalized. What more can u ask?
The jargon that money would flow to the society according to the trickle down effect has been a complete lie. The truth is in capitalism, once a person lay their hands on a money, they would try everything to keep their money 2 themselves and fulfill their greed to gain more money at the cost of others. The trickle down effect would only happen in the form of leakages that would even be in the form of petty cash.
To Be Continued….
