Ayuda

Ayuda is a Filipino word that means aid. It is a very popular word in the Philippines during these days. The Philippine government has announced that cash aid amounting to billions to trillions of pesos have been given to citizens. Seemingly, the government borrowed funds elsewhere in order to have something to distribute to citizens who have entrusted their future to the government. Sadly, every working Filipino citizen who has never received even a centavo from the said funds are obligated to participate in the repayment of the loan :( Is it fair? Why did they not give the cash as loans to the citizens in need os that the citizen who received the amount will work to eventually repay the amount? Every citizen should be trained to plan and be ready for their future. They need the cash these days, that is given. People who have been ensuring that they will be able to survive the hardships need the cash as well. Of course, some people need help but they should be given the much needed help as they are held responsible.
