It seems that People are not disappointed anymore, they are fed up. It seems that corruption has reached a point, where people don't care anymore how this government is ousted. And they don't care, what will come next. Maybe it will not work this time, but the fall will surly come if the corruption and money flow continues. It always comes, sooner or later and one way or another.
