Blaming the government is a cop out. Some of the kids that leave come from good homes and spend lots of money because they want to reach the land of milk and honey. They are sold this facade of how great the west is. They are told the government of western countries pay for your rent pays for school pay you to have children and they provide jobs for everyone.
When I would go visit my family and friends or went to cafe's all I saw were kids from U.S, UK and Canada bragging about how great the west is and peddling these lies. Diaspora that go back home import a fantasy life filled with propaganda of this magical utopia in the west.
Nepotism is the other major issue nobody ever talks about its easier to blame the government for lack of jobs. But the problem is Businesses and their hiring policy. Owners and Managers will hire their daughter the son the cousin the nephew the niece. The family and extended family is all employed even if they are not qualified.
Blaming the government, for most, if not all of our problems is the norm in this forum. We as community have become habituated to criticize the government for corruption, water pipes, bad roads, tahriib, education, unemployment and what not.
And why shouldn't we? It’s easier that way. Blaming the government gives us a chance to save face. And ignores the fact we are the problem.
