I take a lot of politics as how you perceive things in the moment. The fact that you have somebody who's saying something you disagree with, you're contesting an idea. So you disagree with an idea and vigorously oppose it, some might construe that as one person being right and one person being wrong but I just think that's two people trying to debate an issue.
Politicians have a hand in thousands of decisions important to their communities, from questions of dividing tax revenue for local schools to police funding to issues of federal tax policy. The profession offers great rewards to those with a combination of negotiation and public presentation skills
The quotidian tasks of a politician are a delicate balancing act. It involves curriculum that address designing and implementing campaign strategy, fundraising and budgeting, and the best practice approaches for local and state elections.
A politician that is in the early stages of her career, holding a relatively low level or local office. This may be a school or community board position, a seat in the lower house of the state government, or a position as a small town mayor or town council member. Everything after that depends on which path you take.
There is no one career path which reliably leads to an elective office. Working as an aide for an established politician is one common way to meet contacts in the local political party apparatus. Law school is another common first step to a political career, since many lawyers achieve public notice and visibility or do work for state political parties. In general, political careers begin with an elective office in state government
Politicians can earn a generous living, but their salary largely depends on the state and the office they hold. That’s not the case at the federal level. For example, the president of the United States earns around $400,000 per year, according to multiple sources.
Charisma is important, and being independently wealthy to finance campaigns doesn’t hurt. There is no one career path which reliably leads to an elective office
Loss of privacy as its greatest drawback. Whether in a small town or in the White House, politicians are subject to intense scrutiny.
So even if we had a parliament full of robots, we would still need an agency staffed by humans charged with defining the ethical standards to be programmed into the robots. And who gets to decide on those ethical standards? Well we’d probably have to put that to the vote between various interested and competing parties. This bring us full circle, back to the problem of how to prevent undue influence. So no, i'd say the chances are slim
It also depends on how far you want to go.
Public questions will always need to be answered, and politicians will always be needed to answer them.
