Finger pointing , the new Goan obsession

Actually I'm wondering whether this frenzy of finger pointing is new , because if I remember right then it always existed in a form . Government and the opposition pointing fingers at each other , through party owned local dailies or should I say party "influenced" local dailies. A faulty plan or proposition would lead to such a scenario and we are transported back to a second grade class room where the dialogue goes "he did it !" hand outstreched, finger pointing.
Putting the blame onto someone else isn't solving anyones problems. The roads still have pot holes, the hills still get cut , the women are still not safe. Accepting responsility and taking initiative would be the course of action followed by a mature person but unfortunately for us goans we elect people that are fit to be in the second grade , sly underhanded second graders.And it really makes you think if there is knowledge of the term pro active in the state.
What is appreciated is the people of goa have woken up a tad bit , meetings are held by citizens and plans have been thwarted.So there may be a tiny ray of hope somewhere behind the huge black cloud that covers the goan sky.
