RE: The paradox of democracy.

in #philosophy8 years ago

Interesting post, I wonder how you feel about the role of career politicians in this system? Wanting to keep their job next term will certainly lead to a more populist alignment but do you feel this is in the true spirit of public office?

Sort:  

I think that the professional politicians by 99% solve personal problems. Improving life for people is not their primary goal. It always has been. It happens that people are obsessed with certain ideas come to power, but they are usually replaced professional politicians, for whom power is not a way to achieve the goal, the power for them it is an end in itself.
The real changes are taking place under the influence of historical processes and acts of ordinary people.
