Unsubstantiated Theories

Politicians Couldn’t Make It in the Real World

They say that those who can do, do, and those who can’t, teach. I say, those who can do, do, and those who can’t, write laws about what others can do.

With the exception of a few politicians who did spend much of their life working in the real world before running for public office, the vast majority are bred for or groomed for the role from a young age, or they enter public office after failed attempts at business.

Compared to an honest, productive job, politicians operate through lies and deceit, and spend much of their time sitting around and voting about how to regulate things they don’t understand in industries most of them would be unable to survive in if they were dependent on it as their sole source of income.
