STANDING FOR OUR RIGHTS
Middle Class Coalition Front-MCCF
This is an attempt to mobilize the most victimized class in the world, "THE MIDDLE CLASS"; A class that is never truly represented by the 2% elite that occupy the leadership positions to extend their own personal endeavors. To counter the exploitation it is essential to mobilize and create pressure groups so that our voices can be heard by those who claim to be "leaders" in our specific countries. "WE" as middle class want better future for our kids without getting into complexities of race, gender or any other factor that might be used by the powerful to divide and rule.
Initially my aim is to serve the people of Pakistan where middle class is into the habit of keeping their problems to themselves. For instance we cry about exploitation and corruption but we will never take a stand since, the corrupt system is too powerful; Though we realize that our silence is giving the strength to those who are exploiting the system to their own benefit.
If someone is not qualified and he occupy a position only because he know someone who is influential or politically connected than the burden should be on our shoulders to challenge his qualification and demand his expulsion. Similar to that basic necessities of life should be delivered to us by the government but unfortunately we develop a new habit which is usually taught in the military. A military man improvise to make his life easy. For example if you don't have something you need, you utilize another in its place. Though the principle is good but in Pakistan we are developing a new trend for our corrupt political leaders. These leaders know that public will eventually get use to hardships. If there is shortage of electricity, people will buy generators or UPS. If there is no CNG, people will use Petrol etc. This trend needs to be curtailed otherwise government will be left with an easy way out to every problem people of Pakistan face in there daily life.
Lets take our first step by exposing negativity around us. If we see a milk man adding water to milk we should not take it as a way of life, rather we should ask him to stop his ill practice. May be he will give us this excuse that he can't afford to sell pure milk at this price; We in response should ask him to sell us the same milk but at least tell us that he added water in that milk. I mean self accountability is the toughest thing though once this habit is developed that improvement automatically comes in our life. If we are standing at a bus stop and see people jumping line than we should form a line just to create an image of discipline and order. We should advice our brothers and sisters to form a line to make life easier for everyone. I mean it is tough but at least we should develop the habit of doing things the right way.
This organization will start as a social moment but with time we will develop it in a political organization. We need numbers since, unity is strength. We will form our vote bank this in return will give us the leverage to force the politician to engage in projects that will eventually benefit our upcoming generations. Hope should be kept alive and lets march towards the country that we hope to develop for our generations to come.
