In the US, the media is in bed with the agenda.

And I think you meant to say all politicians are criminals. There are many criminals out there who aren't politicians. LOL

We also have the problem with bureaucrats. These people are miserable, arrogant, and the system protects them.

Sort:

Same here , all the major news channels are affiliated to one of the other major political party .

all politicians are criminals.

Oh yeah right , that's what I wanted to say .

We also have the problem with bureaucrats.

Here it is a 50/50 situation , certain bureaucrats are very good , honest and really want to work for the people and also they go face to face against the government but the other half are as you said arrogant .

Even if they are good, they are a hindrance. That is what happens with government, it is the most inefficient model there is.

Yet we have to put up with it for so many areas of our lives.

That's true , that's why I always support grass-level democracy . Here we have something called as panchayat - it is village level democracy , we elect member among ourselves and since everyone knows everyone we hold them accountable if they don't do a good job for our village .

But this doesn't happen everywhere because of town administrators who actually have more powers than village head.

It seems the higher ups always have more power and influence.

This is why we see these disconnected representatives that dont care about what is happening. Just keep winning elections is all they care about.

Exactly , I really believe many problems that we are facing ( in this village ) can be solved if powers are transferred to village head ( he is elected ) .

What's that old saying? "All politics are local" we need to get back to that as a society and look out for the people first.

Very well said . Right now politics has become a criminals game where they fight against each other ( political parties ) and just don't care about the people .
