greedy rich powerful people that simply do not give a fuck about common folks.
As a Nigerian, this is to best reply that summarizes the situation of my country. And to make it worse the common folks keep worshiping the greedy rich and powerful people. It is almost as if they've been held spell bound. The greedy rich and powerful people will steal the the nation's resources and impoverish the common folks, yet they will keep cheering them on. They are like a sheep being led to the slaughter house and despite knowing their demise is near, they do not about it. The people love their chains.
You are not the only one mate.
Many third world countries suffer from this exact same problem. People keep electing the corrupt politicians never learning their lesson. A lot of people on the senate are useless and not really contributing anything. I think many people typically only vote for who’s popular whether be that a good or a bad thing. I hope we all can do better in voting since this is our future we are talking about.
they are the same people we elect all the time. but look at the countries that never do the election in which their leaders reign for more than 20 years, their country seem to be more progressive. election is just a waste of time that the government keeps spending every 4-6 years. big companies that suppress the newer technology that should improve our lives are the ones that also need to change like the new crops that grow faster and bear fruits faster, but these are not shared with the developing countries.
