5. Technically, they aren't supposed to be our 'rulers'

I thought you were going to be talking about corporate titans who have our 'public servants' in their back pockets.

Anyway, I agree that most public servants probably are clowns. The personality type necessary to be a politician sort of mirrors the clown, a constant need for acceptance among strangers which borders or enters into sociopathic or psychotic behavior.
