"Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty"?

Pearl buck has pointedly marked “When good people in any country cease their vigilance and struggle, then evil men prevail.”It behooves people to do care about those whom they elect,for their material being and well being.Leaders,who are elected by a segment of society are believed to be sincere to the cause of general welfare,who are made to act in a certain way to serve the people in the context of objectivity.Outwardly,public's immediate response against any event or tempted action on the part of their leaders,is of greater importance.Reaction,criticism,comments,protests and chanting slogans are the necessary evils to stunt the maltreatment of leaders.General awareness to the ultimate cause make people more considerable in the eyes of their rulers.Nations,who are ruled by the rulers without their intrinsic consent or in absence of their visionary check,are made to act against their will.People face transposition of governance,experience their exploitation and see their fates being trampled down,if they become fail to notice the deeds of their ultimate supervisors.Evils take roots in societies,where its members tend to become mere door nails.Their snail research regarding governmental activities and lack of penetration in national and regional affairs bring them down to ashes.Resources would be then utilized by the leaders at their disposal.People might be trapped in between the giant and cruel jaws of exploiters,their wings might be plugged and their freedom be snatched.Leaders become plunderers of physical and psychological desires,when they find their followers popped in hibernation.On the contrary,nations who have a sense enough to impress upon their leaders to act what they desire, yield more results.Their natural and inalienable rights are then protected by their rulers.Their opinions are regarded and venerated before shaping any sort of policy.Plans are then sketched not in smokescreen of personal interest,but are justified in the light of public interest.Impulses then play their role in keeping a perpetual pressure upon decision makers.Liberty then becomes the upshot fate of the public and a bright future is supplemented to their experiencing lives.All these can only be done,if the leaders are kept in check and warding them off against any mis perception regarding public vigilance.
