The problem with the professional political class is they make money regardless of who wins.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The reality is that politicians, in terms of the amount of power they wield and the amount that they work, don't actually make that much money.
Political battles are won when the rich favor them.
Money in politics is a huge issue.
We're seeing quite a lot of people who really would like a return to class-based politics.
No part of the education of a politician is more indispensable than the fighting of elections.
People have decided that career politicians may be part of the problem, not part of the solution.
There is little place in the political scheme of things for an independent, creative personality, for a fighter. Anyone who takes that role must pay a price.
I understand politicos gotta make bank. But cloistering with the Hollywood elite is not how you prove you're a man of the people.
Whoever decides to dedicate their life to politics knows that earning money isn't the top priority.
The rich are those who play to win. The middle class plays not to lose.
