Ever hear the saying, “On my first day in office, I will…”? It usually doesn’t happen. Politicians say a lot of stuff to get elected. When they say they’re going to give free education to all, or they will single-handedly get us on a path towards paying off our debt, it’s pretty much a lie because they would have to get approval from the party that opposes it, which is never going to happen. Politicians are just full of empty promises, like most failed relationships.
money bag4. Special Interests
Special interests are probably the worst thing to ever happen to politics on both sides of the isle. Elections are expensive. You have to pay for advertisements, advisors, security, stages, staff, wardrobes, and so on. Back in the day they weren’t nearly as expensive. You could just go to the newspapers or get on the radio and tell people your viewpoints telegram number list and why to vote for you. But now it’s a communication war. The money to fund this war doesn’t grow on trees. Big businesses and billionaires around the nation give money to candidates. In return, these politicians pass taxpayer funded plans to help out their industry. Politicians are controlled by special interest groups. Money is power.
Statue of Liberty5. They No Longer Represent the People
If the people don’t want something, then why continue to push for it? And if our citizens do want something, then you better be doing everything you possibly can to make that happen. American citizens want our leaders to reform healthcare, education, the prison system, and our tax structure. Every single year politicians on both sides promise to work to reform them, but it never happens. Don’t you think if both parties want the same thing they would work collectively for it? Of course not. They’re politicians.
Not One Party is Completely Right
