    Everyone is seeing for their own interests. We really need people in power that HATE being in a power.

      I mean, politicians get paid pennies compared to CEO-s with massive risks, why would any intelligent & honest person consider being a politician. Cold fact is, being an honest politician is the worst employment opportunity ever.

        I hold true to the notion that a representative government with representatives selected at random would be much better then what we have.

        There would still be appointed positions but replace most elected posistions with a lottery and go from there.
