I get this idea that there are some people who would like to work for the community and make things better. They get elected to the state-level body and improve things.

But when has this ever turned out ok. I'm sure there are singular instances, but what we more or less consistently and repair get is corruption and/or incompetence.

Why are we doing this then?

And I don't mean as much the society at large, but why do individuals think it's going to give better results this time, or next time. Or whenever in the future.

We need to remove this stupid superstition of the ballot. From our heads.
