Remember:
In democracy, politicians are our representatives not leaders in any sense. Representatives means they work for us.
Don't spend listening to them but observe which representatives listen to you, check if they act with skin in the game, and read the laws they pass.
Eradicate the middle man from you and the representatives. Middle men are modern pimps whose job is to misrepresent.
And yes, most politicians are corrupt.
Conversely, there are some politicians who deserve our immense respect. I mean, who is in the right mindset who opt to live in constant pandemonium?
Never forget that there are some politicians who dedicate their lives for good. Some are even mindful of the second order effects of laws and decisions.
The trick is to identify them. Easiest filter is that they are never part of cable news pimps portfolio since usually they offer no sound bites and instead, focus on boring details.
I salute those rare politicians past and present agnostic to their political leanings. My life is little better is because of them. I am grateful for them.
And they work for me.
