I agree with you and if you see some of my posts on this thread alone I have made that same arguement.
I have believed for over two decades that the politicians think they are smarter, and better than us and want to run every aspect of our lives. It sure gives them the head rush they crave so much and you usually see that kind of thinking in sociopaths, which is what I have thought they are for a long time.
Most politicians are sociopaths and that is one reason our Founding Fathers tried to establish a system that would hopefully keep that from happening.
I’ve said for a long time, that the true war we face is against the soulless (sociopaths.) They control our political institutions, make up a large portion of executives in corporations and probably the bulk of the media. Demon is just an old word for sociopath.
