These are the main reasons I don't trust any politician and I sure don't put any hope in them.  The whole system is designed to incentivize this behavior of deceiving people into thinking they care. The issue isn't JUST that politicians are snakes. Its that the system attracts those type of people and rewards this behavior.

Don't put your hope in politicians

kepford

Yep. I try to do the following

* Follow the incentives
* Don't trust, verify
* Don't believe liars

These are the main reasons I don't trust any politician and I sure don't put any hope in them.  The whole system is designed to incentivize this behavior of deceiving people into thinking they care. The issue isn't JUST that politicians are snakes. Its that the system attracts those type of people and rewards this behavior.
