Populism is very self-serving.


And so is democracy. The most self serving thing is Socialism. If the self in consideration is the person in government Socialism lets the government call all the shots. They tell the people if they are too selfish or not. Populism and of course democracy lets the people call the shots. They tell our government servants when they got it right. And they fire them when they got it wrong.

Never trust a government that does not trust its own people. Obama never trusted America. That’s why he set up several extra-governmental groups, funded them with American tax money, and put them outside of the democratic process (WB, IMF, Climate Fund, UN etc.)
