It is looking like telling lies is the prerequisite of becoming a politician. As a matter of fact, there is a way you will tell lies that people will start suspecting you to be a politician. How we get to this point in human history is what no one can explain.
It's true that even how you like a politician, the tendency of them telling a lie and promises that won't happen is a huge percentage of what they say during campaign periods. Well, there's no need for any explanation on it because that's what they do to obtain power and wealth through the means of being into those public positions.I don't know about your country but in my country, politicians buy over media empires to sell lies and propaganda to the public... I know this is not peculiar to my country. This may be the reason there is a growing distrust between the leaders and the followers.
This is also happening in my country, it's sad that even though we've got a rich country but because of the politicians. Now, our country is unlikely to get itself up because of mishandling and wrong politicians. I still have high hopes that there will be legitimate political people that has the genuine political will to help it recover.But is politics supposed to really be about lies? Why is the polity dominating by propaganda?
To mislead people and those politicians that are doing that shouldn't be trusted, shouldn't be given a public office.
