Do we still have “real politicians” governing this country? If we still have real politicians in the present government, I can’t find them. All I can see on TV are the super-elite academic type theorists, who can shed crocodile tears for hours in name of helping the poor, but they come up with policies that only help the corrupt and the inefficient.
The government is being run like an obstinate and obsolete academic think tank, which treats the entire country like a really large university campus.
The policy makers seem to be under the impression that even if their decisions have adverse consequences, they will be able to correct them by a using a little bit of red ink on the thesis paper. Since they are not real politicians, they can’t be held accountable for the lousy policies that they keep inflicting on this country.
Inflation is hitting new highs all the time, the government does not have any real money, and the policy makers keep coming up with social sector schemes like free food, free healthcare etc. Such schemes never help the poor, or the middle class. In the end all the funds are lost due to corruption and inefficiency.
If the policy makers of this government had been working for any private company, they would have been sacked for incompetence by now. For last five years, they have been promising us that inflation will be brought under control. They have been promising all things to all the people; none of the promises have been kept.
These guys have constantly missed their projections, yet they keep holding their job. Where is the accountability! Devising policy for the government is not same as making a hypocritical speech to a gathering of those limousine liberals from the West (Cloud Cuckoo Land).
The self styled academic think tanks need to be kicked out of the corridors of power immediately. It is time the government brought in some real politicians. By real politicians I mean the leaders who have come up due to their grassroots support and have an understanding of the needs and aspirations of the country.
It is these real politicians who should have the power to take economic decisions.
