There are classes in society whose members think of themselves as being higher than the rest.
They don't think, they know.
Its even written into the constitution.
A psychopath seeks power over all other things.
And that is what these people are.
We think we need someone strong / tough to beat the other party
and psychopaths can easily display this front.
We barely give thought to our politicians being empathetic,
but this is exactly what a psychopath can't mimic.
So, we keep voting for change.. but keep electing people who would torture, traffic and rape children. So, all we will ever get is more control, more power to the state.
Yup, running around in circles we are :/
