I had an argument with my dad about Aussie polticians, I had said that I felt that we should pay politicans a lot less, like back in the day. Politicans had to have another job, most owned or ran companies in their communities, I felt, and feel that this is a better way of ensuring that the politicans have their feet on the ground, and understand what their community really wants.
My dad replied that if you pay peanuts you get monkies. That made me rather angry, I told him that if you simply pay more peanuts you just get bigger monkies. Thats what I feel has happened with most goverments, they aren't there for the good of the community/country they are there for the good of their pockets. America has it pretty bad, with politicans being brought left right and center by the big lobbies. |
