Corruption

Corruption is the use of money or other benefits to bribe a government  or private official into letting you do something that you would not be otherwise allowed to do. It is a most dishonest policy that is mostly used by powerful people.


One of the reason that corruption occurs is mostly for personal gain. It takes many forms like bribery, extortion and embezzlement there are other forms but these are the most common form.

Only certain groups of people benefit from corruption while the rest suffer. If a person through bribery gets a contract to make a road or bridge he may then overcharge or the construction may not be up to standard in this case the cost is on the public since it's the tax payers funds that have been utilised.

In most cases the offender is not caught even If he gets caught then minimum charges are laided on him. Corruption  takes place only when  dishonest people are in places of power.

There needs to be a standard set for the people in public offices. Not everyone who applies should be accepted there should be a background check done on him. Mostly people that take public offices are honest but they become corrupt if they have seniors that are corrupt and tell them to do so to avoid their own termination.

Corruption is a practise that makes the general populace suffer both financially and mentally. Due to the stress that comes from not be able to get their jobs done without warming certain hands.

The corrupt are so deep into it they don't feel like doing any work unless they are paid extra. This is a practise that has been embedded deep into people mind and it's a pattern that is very difficult to break off.

Terrorism


Terrorism has become a business of sorts now days. A terrorist can not operate without money and as such it is mostly a group operation. It is usually targeted at countries that are developed. There are many aspects that are related to terror. If one of them are disturbed then it may make it harder to spread terror or atleast slow down the process.

Terror is used as a means to a end. It is used to disturb the economy of a country and cause its demise. The demise of a country usually happens when the country is unable to protect its citizens and if a terrorist attack was to happen people would be terrified. A terrified population may not be think rationally and lash out this may cause tension among the citizens. Which is one of the aims of the terror attack it is also done to devalue a country currency. The stock market is also one that would suffer very badly the stocks would be valued so low that most people would lose their investments while others may purchase more stocks as when the value of the stocks got high they will become super rich. Terrorism is a very unnatural process through which certain groups or states benefit while the rest suffer very poorly.

People turn to terrorism when they think or are made to think that if they face certain issues it's the fault of other nations and they should be punished. Young people are mostly sweet talked into this and they are the ones to suffer.

Terror prevention is used so that countries and people are not hurt by the action of terrorist who have no motive apart from destabilising a economy and causing hurt to people. Terrorist try to justify their action saying that is was the will of god. This justification proves that they do not know what they are doing but only following the orders they get for the money they receive and promise that if they do this they will be granted a place in heaven. There are many procedures in place by every country to prevent terror and to prevent its upbringing. The loopholes and corrupt people that are available in certain countries allow the terrorist to enter their country and wreck havoc for a certain sum of money. For this certain sum of money they are destroying lives and families. Terror needs to be put to a end one way or another
