Wherever there is money, there will always be corruption. Corruption can never be eliminated entirely, it can only be controlled. This passage describes the current situation in China. Although our Party and government have punished the corrupt officials severely, corruption in China seems to die hard. The relationship between these men and money has been reversed: money talks; man listens. It seems to me instead of man being in control of money, money is firmly in control of man. In today's world many people appear to be hungry for money. They bow to it. They scramble for it. Some of them even seem to sell their souls for it or risk their lives in pursuit of it. Is money so fascinating as to be worthy of sacrificing your life? |
