There's just too much wrong with this world, and despite coming off as arrogant or narcissistic, I could actually fix everything if I was put in charge. I wouldn't even demand anything, definitely not money. I would figure putting everything right would be reward enough.
The less an ideology demands of it's adherents, the less longevity it will have.

I won't argue against this as they end in writing the legislation that their slaved political lackeys pass.

I would also put blame on the gullible public who do not see who they are really being led by.

Have you seen George Carlin's American Dream skit.

It is worth looking up.

I do not particularly buy your overall view2, but if true, then you make my point, I think, of governments creating poverty.

Why do governments not just end poverty if no resources are necessary?

The poor do not have the resources to fund much of anything, but they do make a good make work project for those who get funding from those who have the resources to give them.

To maintain poverty in a country for job creation, is sick.

The poor pay with their miserable lives while the middle class pay most of everything else. The rich have had a long run at learning how to cover their ass and keep their wealth.
