Reasons why Political Dynasties Remain Strong

Political dynasties have already been existing for a long time. Usually it is the sons or daughters who succeeded their father's position. Sometimes there are others who really wanted the position and they would end up killing their own family in order to rule. The 1987 Constitution of the Republic of the Philippines: Article 2 - Declaration of Principles and State Policies, Section 26 states that:
“The State shall guarantee equal access to opportunities for public service, and prohibit political dynasties as may be defined by law. ” But no such law has been approved regarding political dynasty due to disagreements. Currently, there are about 150 political dynasties in our country. The most popular families are the Arroyo, Cayetano, Osmena,Sotto,and the Aquino clan. Some of them have already been in power for more than 25 years but most of them failed to address our country's political and economic problems. Most people also vote for them because of their wealth and familiarity.
