RE: Deliberate Incompetence as a Cover for Self-Destructive Policy

in Economics3 days ago

Most politicians behave the way they do out of self-interest, i.e., for more wealth or simply to avoid being exposed for some of their past actions. They are able to do this because they lack sufficient empathy to stop themselves. I think very few politicians hurt the people of their country for the joy of it.

I use to think it was just the politicians in Nigeria that had this way of life, although I do believe that some are worse than the others, but I find it very disturbing that politicians are humans who have killed their conscience and no longer have empathy of service.
