I wonder about that... I think it is a living and breathing thing... it's alive and it breathes in and out and is constantly growing.. being fed by human desires... there is a will to be honest but then there is a sense of greed that drives decision making process. When good people drop out because they are frustrated... it leaves decisions in the hands of the most greedy. Greed is a necessary desire but it needs to be counterbalanced with concern for the lives of as many people as possible.

Yes, absolutely

or woman's.

No. It's that a lot of crooks go into politics to steal money.

It’s about convincing people to vote for you and is equally available to men and women.

No, not at all. But democracy is open to all comers, and unfortunately that imcludes those who cannot tell the difference between public interest and self interest. It is up to the electorate to exercise their critical faculties and not believe everything they are told simply because they like the speaker.

It seems so now but it doesn't have to be.

At it's core, no, but it doesn't seem to take into account the natural greed of people. Money corrupts, power corrupts absolutely

it doesn't have to be but a lot of the times some are unfortunately but that's just people in general imo
