I have been to The University of Life.

I learned that scoundrels almost always triumph. I learned that in Malta, this is especially so.

I learned that honesty never pays off. And I’ve yet to be proven wrong.

I am neither philosopher nor theologian but I have been to several lectures on this point and have always left with the conviction that the just man always wins no matter what, even if at face value he seems to have lost.

I am not capable of elaborating on this point but I am sure there will be someone who could use Natural Law as the starting point here.

What dignity? You need to have it first before being able to lose it. From what I am seeing there are a lot of people lacking dignity or any shred of moral fibre.

Really? Do you honestly think so? So you honestly think that people like this don’t “get away with it in the end”?

Well, I don’t believe it. I thought Franco Debono would have had to leave the island (as he said he would’ve ) in shame come election time. Not only hasn’t he left, he’s been rewarded.

And if you think that that Commissioner of Laws stuff is the reward, you better think again… and then some.

I understand your point, Albona. However these people have no sense or sensibility. They do not understand the meaning of disgrace, morals or remorse. Their sole objective is ‘show me the money’. Such a sad lot. Unfortunately, they now rule.
