The Life of a Politician

Cronyism. Elitism. Nepotism. Careerism. Narcissism.  All these words typify and embody politicians of both parties.  Why do we tolerate it?  A politician's life ought not be enjoyable.  Rather, it necessarily should be one of toil and diligence.  Time off?  No.  It is time to work, and to remain in your physical office until your task is done.  Got rich while being a politician?  What a wonderful way to prove that you were not doing what the people sent you to do.  A politician's life should be no more glamorous than the trash collector's with the same benefits.  Strap them to the plow and demand more from them.  After all, they asked for it.
