Future politicians are like steam engines, they exist only in museums. I mean we had roman senators back 2,000 years ago, but the problem then as now is that they do not reflect the people. For example, roman senators wore purple and were all rich, and guess what, US senators are all rich. It is a millionaires frat club. England has a house of lord, and a house of commons, with teacher, plumbers, etc in commons. US has two house of lords and no commons.
People often ask should a politicians faith influence his or her decisions? Well, it will in a covert way. It is my belief that most elected officials believe in the green god of money. They are mostly greedy and mean. Perhaps they started out with the best of intentions, but along the way money and its corrosive influence destroyed them.
In fact, one of the dangers of career politicians is that they are so use to compromise that it becomes a habit. After a while, they believe in saying anything to get elected. In the future governments do not exist, and the people are not slaves to corporations either. The age of big biz & big gov is now. These do not exist in the future.
