Can we fight corruption?

This is a question i have been asking myself for quite a long time now..everytime i read something about corruption i feel this shouldn't be continuing..everytime i watch a movie about revolution i feel yes i should also do something like that but most of it isn't practical..fine..lets not fight it but we can atleast not contribute to it..Do you think its possible???nope..very seldom can we avoid it.. suppose you gottu register a new house or property..just try if you can get it done without paying money to a broker or bribing the officer..damn it..its just not possible..
you need to pay the police to make him sign for the verification letter to get your passport..Damn the world..I want to change it but how?????

You or in general we, cannot aggressively fight corruption, why? Thats' because we have that Thousand odd rupees to pay the broker or the Police. The circumstances in which we live, make us that much complacent to the situation.

Now suppose that you don't have the luxury to pay the bribe and you are in a critical position. Thats' the time when you challenge.

There may be many real life or reel life (RDB) examples. But you should remember the one told by our CIPE teacher, where the farmer threatens to kill himself to get back his land.

I don't understand why there is such a big deal about it.... The same works for global warming, religion issues... etc.... The important thing for everyone to realise is that we are all human not gods... we have feelings... both good and bad... You cant have kindness, compassion bla bla without jealously, selfishness and spite...

If everyone was good then we would never be human... I dont understand why people dont get this... Its just evolution... Corruption did not start TODAY... Its not a thing of the 90s.... Its been going on man... Even before man was there.... In the stone age it was probably food for a favour or something like that.... Revolution and utopia is something that can be only described in art which is why it appears beautiful coz everyone knows that it is unachievable as long as humans remain human....

Even revolutionary movies like RDB or others would have bribed thousands of officials before hitting the silver screen..... the aim of which was to make money at the box office....

@mojo..what u told is right..its not a thing of today but the problem is its on the rise and its affecting a lot of ppl..May be the idea of RDB was to make money but not without making ppl think about revoluion..may be there can't be an ideal world but atleast it would be nice to live in a fair world..

Corruption can be fought with and won against, too...

Solution: HIGHLY FREAKIN' DIFFICULT...

It will need 6,793,224,544+ people (World population at the time of this writing - increasing at a rate of 3 per second)... and it will need them (yes, including the corrupt ones) to get into the system and clean it out, just like the municipality's employees do everyday...

revolution may come, but needs shiploads of cash to be successful... many behind the scenes reasons for that...
