RE: Hypocrite Dad, Hypocrite Dad

I can't agree that "we" have created a corrupt system. It is "they" who are/were in a position to corrupt and be corrupted that has skewed the system in their favor.

Sh*t always runs downhill and now even the low level bureaucrats feel they have the right to do as they see and not as they should. The very oath to "serve" has been corrupted to a personal oath to "serve themselves".

This may be seen as a pessimistic view of the way things are but, imho, it doesn't change the reality that this tendency towards self service is the root of most of the problems in this world.

Sort:  

We elect the system. Politicians represent the average perception and serve the average wish. This is how and why they get elected.

No we do not "elect the system", nor have we done that for a long time. Politicians don't represent any kind of average, they work for a bankrupt uncharted corporation, they are pirates on land. There is nothing else to discuss, and elected officials aren't elected officials the moment that they go to war against their people or act outside their capacity, since no person would willingly enslave themselves it's the politicians that carry all the blame. They are the ones that are in lack of forgiveness and in need of it.
