“Contrary to the romantic way in which our history is/has been portrayed, politicians are NOT 'men of good conscience.' In the real world, it takes a psychopath to want to rule over other human beings. Unless you want to define the word 'service' in the context of what a bull does to a cow, in no way are the efforts of politicians in this regard any kind of 'service'.” MenWorldWayWantHumansKindDoeHas BeensRealPoliticalHuman BeingsEffortPoliticianConscienceRegardContraryReal WorldCowsBullsPsychopath Author:Edward Britton
“At the risk of repetition let me say again that my plea is not for immunity to, but for the most unsparing exposure of, the politician who betrays his trust, of the big business man who makes or spends his fortune in illegitimate or corrupt ways. There should be a resolute effort to hunt every such man out of the position he has disgraced. Expose the crime, and hunt down the criminal; but remember that even in the case of crime, if it is attacked in sensational, lurid, and untruthful fashion, the attack may do more damage to the public mind than the crime itself.” IfsMenWayShouldMindMayBigsRememberEffortBusinessCasesRiskFashionCrimePositionPoliticianLet MeFortuneCriminalsDamageBetrayRepetitionHuntsExposureBig BusinessResoluteImmunitySensationalBusiness Man Author:Theodore Roosevelt
“You have the courage to tell the masses what no politician told them: you are inferior and all the improvements in your conditions which you simply take for granted you owe to the effort of men who are better than you. If this be arrogance, as some of your critics observed, it is still the truth that had to said in the age of the Welfare State.” IfsMenSaidStillsStatesAgeEffortConditionsPoliticianMassCriticsImprovementGrantedWelfareArroganceInferiorsBetter Than YouWelfare State Author:Ludwig von Mises
“What is any political campaign save a concerted effort to turn out a set of politicians who are admittedly bad and put in a set who are thought to be better. The former assumption, I believe is always sound; the latter is just as certainly false. For if experience teaches us anything at all it teaches us this: that a good politician, under democracy, is quite as unthinkable as an honest burglar.” IfsBelievePoliticalTurnsI BelieveSoundEffortTeachDemocracyHonestPoliticianCampaignsFormerAssumptionLatterUnthinkableBurglarsPolitical CampaignGood Politicians Book:PREJUDICES A SELECTION Source: PREJUDICES A SELECTION
“If we can find approaches that meet the needs of the poor in ways that generate profits for business and votes for politicians, we will have found a sustainable way to reduce inequity in the world.

“But we must not forget the effort undertaken by the ruling elite in Russia to manipulate Western politicians, businessmen as well as journalists.

“I think the arrogance of people who think or actually are in the establishment, think they're part of it or actually are, they cannot help themselves, apparently. They take this guy, Trump, who is not a politician, in the career sense, and they plug him into their system and analyze what he does and what he says the way they analyze professional politicians and what they say and do, and they miss it. Which is not news. The news is they're not even getting close to understanding it yet. Despite the never-ending efforts on the part of people like me to help them figure it out.” PeopleThinkingHelpingGuyUnderstandingEffortMissingPoliticianArrogance Author:Rush Limbaugh
