Getting elected just doesn’t translate into being the best candidate for the job.
The job of government is to enrich itself while limiting the actions of its people, with the side-effect of having a monopoly on the initiation of violence. I would rather live in a place where people in government are terrible at their jobs. Preferably a place where the government is divided into separate groups that are divided against each other so it can hardly do anything at all.
As Mal Reynolds would say, “that’s what a government’s for—getting in a man’s way”
