In this day and age when any country is not completely independent and economies are more intertwined than ever, the world does not seem to be a collection of different countries rather it appears like one mass and entity. In accordance the working of this entity is entirely not dependent on some few people but rather is now dependent on a sect of people. This sect of people are constantly making decisions and undertaking them to make good out of their own selfish derivations.
In today's times the youth is not ignorant but they are not wise to these tactics as well. They can be easily mislead, misunderstood, misguided and importantly easily be taken on a path which seems righteous but eventually leads to just another presence in a group. Let me give an example to prove my point. Let's take "X" as a brilliant child who ace's in his curriculum, is a born leader with good ethics and a strong upbringing to support them. He excels in almost everything his parents want him to indulge him. This natural spark of brilliance seems to be revolutionary and can produce a great leader. But the difference is when it comes to choosing a career, "X" will definitely opt for the most lucrative of the options. He will almost definitely go on to be an engineer or a doctor who goes on to make millions but looses his spark in the process. Politics is never even on his mind and politicians are just names that pop up for the general knowledge of things.
Why is that the brilliance of individuals are never fulfilled in the sphere of the political arena. We have highly educated politicians but when the word politician is attached to an individual the whole perception of things drastically changes. Politicians are only viewed as leeched who feed off the common folk and lead a lavish life. This is certainly true to an extent; my case being the scams which are evidently dealt with "only" by the media on a daily basis. These scams and falsification of the concept of a "GOVERNMENT" is palpable and laughable to say the least, but there is effort and sometimes some sane thought which leads to a acceptable conclusion. Politics thus becomes a facet of the country which is only divulged in times of the elections or during the time of major scams.
Nobody we hear or see stands up to say that politics is an arena and we are ready to dive in to WIN. Importantly it has achieved a status where if these politicians cease to exists, it would not make much of a difference to the population because majority of them don't comprehend the importance of them. Politics is never bad the idea of it is. The perception makes the difference and the agendas or motive of an individual speaks volumes about the same.
In a world where information is key and it flows today better than ever, governance can be simplified to a point where people have a better say than just the marked finger every 5 years or so. Politics and politicians can be accepted for what it is and what they are but the fundamental law remains the same, WE CAN ONLY PERCEIVE THINGS IF ONLY WE ARE LOOKING FOR THEM.
