Darlene... this is, like I suppose... the exact picture in all countries of this continent. It is easy to keep the noneducated and poor masses relatively content with populist politics (and those masses make a big percent of our population). People might often ignore the corruption and other scandals if there's a really good politic advertising and dull promises.

 

It really pisses me off, because in my country also won the officialist party (the party of the last president, so there isn't basically any goverment change), involved in a lot of scandals and people just didn't give a shit about it. :veryangry:

 

/my two cents to the thread.

Faust said it all. It's a vicious circle: bad politicians fail to create a good educational system. The people stays in ignorance and continue to elect bad politicians.

:( sad.

 

seems that same is happening in europe, imo.

and then why do people keep voting them?

not many people notice their lies? :\

 

Have you ever heard of Sylvio Berlusconi?

@Navegador: will the politic critics give her a 100 days 'trial' or oppositors are complaining off her plans already?

is she doing what she promised already, just the big things, none at all?
