Chapter 752: Enemy? Ally!
Whether they were from Gephra, the Federation, or any other country—especially the ordinary people at the bottom of society—they all shared a similar question: those officials know nothing, so how did they get their positions?
Take, for example, members of the Federal Congress in Baylor. Many of them had never worked in any legal field, and some hadn’t even majored in law during college.
They barely understood the law—so how were they qualified to decide whether a bill should pass or be amended?
Put simply, why were a bunch of amateurs doing things even experts couldn’t manage?
Many people had this question. Just like Lynch—someone who had never proven himself on a football field—how could he become the chairman of a professional football club? Based on what?
When this question popped into people’s minds, it usually came with a wave of anger. Maybe they themselves were facing such unfairness, or someone close to them, or someone in society.
That’s why they asked: why are politicians, often outsiders in so many industries, able to do jobs that only insiders should be able to do?
The truth is, people have been looking at the issue from the wrong perspective. Because for politicians, their expertise is politics. Their profession is politics. The power and influence that come with it? That’s just a bonus.
As long as they know how to scheme, compromise when necessary, and lower their shame and moral standards just enough—then in politics, they are professionals.
