:o))
ALL politicians are wolves in sheep's clothing.

And to make it worse,

- their number is absurdly large
- their salaries+perquisites are absurdly huge+unrealistic
- the legal privileges+protection for them encourage corruption
- from their point of view, it's absurd not to steal public funds
- the masses do not really care if the politicians are crooks!
