Quote:I feel that politics and politicians have not changed. They are not on our side, they are not noble equitable legislators, and hardly represent the people.
I am not so negative. I think a lot of politicians are on our side and want to do an as good as they can job. The problem is that people tend to vote for the few that as you say are not on our side.
There are so many examples: Berlusconi in italy just wants to be prime minister so that he cannot be brought to court....but still people vote for him. That he is a multibillionair and owns most of the countries TV station and other media does not seem to bother most people.
Bush is another example, I don' t want to get into another discussion about him,but he is a clear example of not a right person....and he even got voted for twice.
Hitler, maybe the 'best' example of them all was ellected (not completely in a regular way of course but still). We have to live with the fact that 4 out of 5 people around us are complete morons.
Once in a while when I realize this I often wonder why I just didn't became a stock broker and made loads of money, and didn't care about other people....most of them don't deserve it......
Wait....I think I'm more negative than you.........
