Yeah, it's funny how the politicians themselves are always omitted from policies.

i think we need to get more vocal about another funny thing, the fact that politicians are elected and we can all stop voting for these ghouls.

Not voting won't help, sadly. It's viewed as disinterest at best and consent with the sitting party at worst.

Her government also just raised the retirement age in Denmark, but that didn't include the retirement age for elected politicians for some funny reason.

I know. And it's not just Her Party. Both major parties thought it was a brilliant idea as it only affects the general population.

With the whole 'Bridging Parties' on top of the 'Rotation Order', I feel like we've officially become an Aristocracy as opposed to Democracy.
