It’s a real Catch-22 —

If you are a decent human being, then you are the sort of person we want as a politician.
But if you are a decent human being, you’ll never have success in politics.

This is essentially why government should be small and weak. It helps minimize the damage that can be done by all the low lifes who have political success.

I agree.

Someone once said that power corrupts. It may well do so for some of weak morals to begin with.

The truth, as I’ve seen it play out, is that the corrupt seek power and pervert it to their own whims.
