Is the government incompetent on purpose?

Question

It takes alot of planing and co-operative effort to run a successful political campaign and win an election. These people are obviously smarter than average.

With that being said, how can they claim that the mess we're in is not their form of planned kaos?

Have we been sold as slaves to a corrupt system that works for "them"only?

Answer 1

It certainly seems so, doesn't it? I also wonder whether or not Microsoft's Windows products aren't engineered so poorly on purpose. I mean, my God, how incompetent ARE those people at Microsoft?

Answer 2

Of course we have. It is not in a politicians interest to take what the public wants into account. Either they can be a really nice guy, and do what they promised when they were elected - or they can be constructively incompetant, lazy and incredibly rich. Which would you rather be? Well-liked or very rich and powerful?

Power corrupts. Simple as that. Representative democracy is simply an illusion which makes people believe they have a choice, when in fact they will choose from what they are given - people who will always be, and always have been, identical in all the areas that truly matter.

Answer 3

OK...by creating kaos you have fear, now...with fear what do you do? fight?, kneel down and pray?, Run? many people react different when confronted by a situation that will affect their life in a negative way...once that fear has been inplanted into us guess who gets to control our life, our modus vivendi..the government takes advantage of this social strategy to do as they please with us...But why? people ask...because there is a rule the politicians go by...which is THE GOLDEN RULE...whoever has the gold makes the rules

plain and simple...if some one speaks against them, this person becomes a Communist or a terrorist, some one against freedoms...but tell me what freedom really is? I think freedom is the right to be into debt for the rest of your life..at least is one right you have..

Answer 4

Have you seen the movie Cube? A guy in there explains it well.

It is not that any one member of the government is totally incompetent, it is just that they don't work well together. Lack of communication, miscommunication, greed, conflicting ideas, bureaucracy all work together to create a hopeless mess.

Answer 5

You see, it's obvious to us but not to them. I'ts like saying how dare are we to judge our leaders who have the utmost powers to do anything. You see, they're so arrogant to acknowledge these things which included their being ignorant of who voted for them that put them in office. These people sometimes tend to get stupid enough to not realizing that they're screwing up thatt it's getting out of hand to the point we the people even know about it. By this time it already is too late. Good enough, yes?

Answer 6

Our Food, money and politics?
Does it make sense to buy our food from people who have no regulations like China? Does it make sense to have Mexican immigrants pick our fruits and vegetables and work in slaughter houses? Mexicans get no vaccinations, they crap and pee while in fields working and do not wash there hands. This in turn gets into our food through storm water wash off. So should we impose stricter penalties on farms and other places that hire immigrants? Such as to work in a food processing factory they need to be tested for disease and updated on vaccinations. Finally should we keep buying from China they have no FDA regulations on products that come into this country, should we not hold countries and business to higher standards? Please leave your feedback lets get people thinking.

Answer 7

The American government is extremely incompetent and yes I have a feeling it is intentional.
