Government is too Important for Politicians

This Leader talks about how the future Prime Minister has failed in the past few years to bring about reforms of budget that England would be proud of.

The larger theme of the article is to once again show that the governing of citizens is too important of an issue to leave to politicians to figure out. Important decisions such as national debt, governmental reforms and the education of our children should not be left to people whose only qualification is that they have convinced people to vote for them. A popularity contest is not how large decisions should be made.

Look at the current immigration reform controversey going on in America. Of course Mexicans and Mexican-Americans are going to protest more strict regulation of immigration, but is it right to give in to the few that protest? We need to remember that many of these people are protesting in order to stay in the country. I would protest just about anything if it helped my cause to stay in this country.
