This is the reality now, the government officials may have increased their flow of income due to corruption, while leaving the citizens still struggling for money and survival. So it’s not surprising why people do not see growth from their country, do not experience satisfaction from their government services, that’s because the country’s government is a big mess, the officials are not there for the people but to support the greed that have been motivated them from the start of their position.
That's why I say there's no need to rely on the government because every individual can still change their destiny for the better if they're willing to try. Recognize your own potential and make some real changes to achieve a much better life. For example, starting a small business to earn extra income can test your self-development in building a self-sufficient business.
A corrupt government will never think about its people, and a country with the highest levels of corruption will never be able to improve the lives of its citizens, especially regarding the economic growth of every citizen within it.
