DON'T BE A POLITICIAN

Politicians are elected officials who run the federal government and state and local governments. They enact and carry out laws and make decisions about the distribution of public funds. There is no formal training to become a politician. Many lawyers enter politics, but anyone can become a politician. All it takes is the desire to influence the laws of the country or of your particular city, town or state.

Politicians tend to be an unpopular lot. It’s a thankless job that they do. No matter what decision they make, more people are as likely to be unhappy with the decision than like or support it. Part of their problems they bring upon themselves. Part of their problem stems from doing what it takes to get the job. Salespeople can often fall victim to these same mistakes.

If people would ask me for my opinion about politics, well… I would just probably wince at the thought. Politics nowadays are either worse or worst and there’s nothing in between. The politicians can’t blame us though for thus because we always hear of news exposing a politician’s act of wrongdoings such as stealth and corruption. Add that to politicians taking kick-backs, cheating on their spouses and lying to their constituents. It's not hard to see why politicians have gained a bad reputation. I of course appreciate their dedication to enact l was and everything but there’s always more than reason to hate the politics than to love it.  Some of these are the following:

1.       Politicians are always politicians. They don’t think of people when they say they do.

2.     Politicians always want to show their opponent is wrong, instead of showing why they are the best option.

3.     Politics is about the people, not to make the politician look good.

4.     The more money a government has, and the more power it has, the more corrupted it is.

5.     Politicians always say what they will do, but they never say how they will do it.

6.    It is easy to promise things, the hardest is to fulfill them

7.     The guy who speaks the most and stuffs his mouth with words is the one who won’t do anything.

8.    Debates are such a waste of time. It’s to show that politicians act like children fighting for a football

9.    I don’t believe in guns and weapons because violence generates violence.

10. Student loans and grants are like the Perpetual Education Fund. If you get rid of it, you will have a bunch of talking donkeys asking you for water.

11.    I believe illegal immigration should be addressed according to each situation. I agree some people should be just kicked out, but others should be given a chance.

12.  I hate construction zones because it takes too long to complete something, and because driving becomes confusing.

13.  I hate wars with other countries.

14.  I don’t know if politicians talk about something that it is not “I” “me”, “mine” and “my”.

15.  If a politician is pointing with his finger to somebody else, his other fingers are pointing to himself.

16. Politics is like a drug, once you have taken it, you just want more and can’t let it go.

17.  I believe in sustaining the U.S. president, the governors, and all other people appointed to any other office, whoever they are and no matter their political party.

18. I believe politicians don’t sustain their president. That’s why they still fight each other.

19. I believe in social programs and that the government should help those who are unable to do it. But I also believe that all people should be self-sufficient.

20.   Having social programs doesn't mean socialism.
