Duality of a Political leader

This post may seem like a Political jab when in fact it’s not. Yes duality may make you think it is but it is not. My posts are almost always about thinking.

When do Political leaders which are “too little to succeed", become "too big to fail"? When they associate themselves with the “to big to fail”. So I guess Political leaders are officially "too big to fail".

We can’t have a bankrupt or poor leader making decisions. After all we voted them in due to their intelligence and leadership abilities. How would we view ourselves if we knew we voted for some bankrupt poor looser?


Stock ownership US Congress influenced voting on bailout.

Personal investments in the stock of financial institutions by members of the House of Representatives and the Senate of the Unites States was positively associated with these institutions receiving bailout after the subprime mortgage crisis of 2007.

What is the duality of a Political Leader? A citizen?


But wouldn’t you do the same? It’s not like we don’t know this is happening. And don’t say you would not do this. Plus a Politician is a citizen as well, or is he an employee of a corporation called America. Are we employees too?

So if the duality is not a citizen since we all would have done the same, is it a voter? No politicians are voters. I am struggling on the perfect duality here. I guess some might think the duality is a communist or a socialist but that doesn’t seem right either.

I got it; a dishonest crook is the duality. Hmm, crook is little harsh, Political leaders are not honest crooks.

Sincerely, these guys aren't crooks they’re just smart. They just don’t tell us everything because they think we might not understand.

I finally got it; the duality of a Political leader is the child.

They’re kind of like the parents protecting us and keeping us away from the worries in life. We're so lucky to have them.

No that was not sarcasm.
