The people who go into certain positions is not only based on interest, but also on personality.
Meaning, for example, I could have chosen any field I wanted to go into. I chose engineering because I am interested in technology, but also because I would rather work with machines than people.
Politicians go into politics because they are naturally greedy narcissistic power hungry people. They think, “this is the perfect profession for me.” Maybe they don’t acknowledge why, partly it may be because they are interested, but it is because their personality fits the role.
Some politicians may say, “I wanted to go into politics to change things.” But they don’t say how they want to change things.
Politicians are not necessarily smart either, meaning, they may not make the best decisions in their role. It doesn’t take a smart person to be a politician. Furthermore, a lot of them abuse alcohol, drugs, commit adultery, among other related things.
This page is relevant to STEM because the politicians are helping contribute to the deterioration of STEM in America, along with America itself.
Politicians are not necessarily smart, but that doesn't mean that don't have power, aren't dangerous, and don't pose a threat.
An idiot with power is a very dangerous thing. These people rise to their positions because they are hungry for power and have no qualms about backstabbing their way to get there.
The stupid masses go along with people who act smart.
A giant person with a small brain can smash a little person with a highly intelligent brain. Just because the little person is smart does not mean that he has control over the larger person.
But here we have the political system, which is powerful and sneaky. And the masses, which are stupid, blind, and unwilling to see.
