That's a great analogy you made. People who voted BOUGHT something. Well I thought politicians, as leaders of different groups, are supposed to show a better way, to do their work so that different aspects of communal life get simplified, harmonized so that people can develop themselves while supporting progress inside this shared environments. You complain that politicians have no spine but I say that it's exactly this approach that turns them into performers onto a political scene that owe us something while we waste our lives with our eyes stuck on they show pointing fingers and feeling entitled to receive from them a better life. We have lost the notion of what authority truly is with all these clowns playing power games. I say a leader must follow the truth and be able to change the position when needed. People should vote for leaders, not individuals who satisfy their egos.
