Various Transport and Activist Groups have warned Malacanang about the imminent danger of another People Power if Pres. Noynoy Aquino doesn't do anything about the continuing high cost of fuel. To us Filipinos, People Power means the bloodless 1986 EDSA Revolution that toppled and ousted the former dictator, the worst human rights violator, the greatest thief of all time and the Founding Father of Graft and Corruption, the late Ex-Pres. Ferdinand E. Marcos Sr.
Let me make it clear, I'm talking about about the first, the earliest and the original EDSA 1 People Power Revolution. Why the clarification? Because a lot of so called EDSA People Power 2, 3, 4, hell, I can't count that high, eventually tried to imitate the 1st EDSA Revolution. Well, at least the 2nd EDSA People Power which kicked out Pres. Joseph "Erap" Estrada, the "Father of all Jueteng Lords" according to his former mahjong buddy Gov. Chavit Singson is as authentic and as genuine as the 1st EDSA People Power.
Then after that 2nd People Power, the family and supporters of Pres. Erap tried to recoup his place in Malacanang and attempted to kick Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo's ass out of the Palace. This eventually failed but gave birth to multiple failed coup attempts led by a Navy Junior Officer named Trillianes and his gang. Trillianes got so famous after two failed coup attempts that he's a Senator now. Yeah, I voted for Sen. Trillianes back then because I thought he can change things in our country but he turned out to be another useless politician just like the rest of them. He's getting fat using up his pork barrel and enjoying all the perks of being a Senator after he got out of jail while the rest of the Juan dela Cruzes like me are still in poverty.
So another threat of People Power is no longer surprising to me.It's beginning to look like a series of horror films that keeps on making a lot of sequels that people just stopped counting and eventually got tired of watching. It's like a Manny Pacquiao fight where he always wins no matter what the odds are. It's getting boring, dumb and tiresome if you ask me. Like a rerun of an old TV show that you already know what the next scene will be before it's even shown.
People Power because the price of oil is too high? Why the hell not! Let's see, how about People Power to lower text and call rates on cell phones? People Power for free internet? People Power for free food? For free clothes? Let's do a People Power for everything that we can think of! Yeah! That's going to make our country really famous and prosperous. Let's also rename our country as People Power Republic to make everything nice and lovely. Hahaha!
