Oooo time for me to reveal my hottest take. Politicians are generally very underpaid. When a job puts you under a microscope, involves people yelling at you and inherently lacks job security it better be pretty well paid. And yet any electable, competent politician could turn around and make at least 2-3x as much (as they are making legitimately at least) doing something else and keep having weird sex without newspapers writing stories about them. No one who is rational and not evil would ever go into politics just for money of it so all that’s left is the corrupt, the truly dumb and the unpractical idealists.
If you want better politicians then pay for it. Give them all multi-million dollars salaries, ban them from stock exchange, and keep paying them even if they lose.
Well if your dogshit country actually had a spine and three braincells to knock together, maybe. Ya’ll literally couldn’t even keep the most obvious fascist of all time out of office after he failed so bad the first time. As a country you deserve this and to the people who still did their best I’m sorry they have to deal with this.
Look Canada isn’t much better, we vote for garbage(or don’t show up to vote for better) and we get garbage. These people don’t hide who they are, they absolutely represent the population both directly and indirectly.
You said that they don’t represent the people, I was correcting you. Neither of us enjoy the fact that they represent an unfortunate number of people, but they do.
What this also means is that they can be removed if enough people stop fucking voting for them. They are not kings, not yet anyway.

If one employee sucks fire them. If all your employees suck maybe you should do something to attract better talent.
