Are we that damn good enough, educated and capable of reading "between lines" ?
Who is to be blamed, then ? |
In that context, we are.

I do not defend politicians. They have "cheated" people since Mankind emerged. That is Us-People who should "de-code" political language, if we want to get involved in politics.
The vision for political systems, ideologies, ect. - you present, (it) simply does not exist in reality, except for books.

That something exists "in reality" and that something MUST exist in reality are two different things. I prefer not to accept the status quo as a fact of life. Unfortunately, I'm aware of the fact that too many voting Americans can't "decode" anything.

Example (only) :
1 barrel of oil costs $45.00, today
1 barrel of oil costs $90.00 tomorrow
What would you do ? Let your people to have miserable life tomorrow ?
Do not you think that you need to protect your own state and provide people with suitable means them to accept, or face unknown tomorrow with no vision what it may bring at all ?

What an intelligent "leader" would do is prepare for the worst case scenario. In this case, if a barrel of oil costs $45 today, you take steps to make sure we can function WITHOUT a $90 barrel tomorrow. We have NOT taken any steps to make ourselves less dependent on imported oil. THAT is your "unknown tomorrow". But it sems it is only unknown to those in charge.
