"You wanna be a politician?!"
Gallup says about 2 out of 3
Americans would not want their children to "go into politics as a life's
work." Also, the polling organization reports, that sentiment has been
pretty much unchanged during the last 20 years.
Well, no surprise, right? Think of
all the politicians you know, respect and love…
Congress is currently getting
something like a 14% approval rating…who are the 14% who think the folks in
Washington are doing a good job?
For that matter, who are the 1 out of
3 Americans who WOULD like a son or daughter to go into politics?
I think politics SHOULD be a noble
profession.
It's not. I don't expect it will be.
In politics, there is too much
reward for the wrong kind of motivation.
Every elected representative should
be limited to one brief term.
And come to think of it, who are
the people who keep re-electing the incumbents?
