Politicians

Politicians are the most insidious and skillful intriguers. They promise very much to people and later on they refuse their words or find different explanations for their inconsistency. They always know what to say and never experience lack of words. They deceive people but look very confident in themselves and people believe them again and again. Then they are surprised. Hoe they could believe their lies. Yes, deception is a sort of art. Those who master it, deceive people, and remain unpunished and people continue believing lies. This can be compared with mass hypnosis. How else can we explain this phenomenon? There is always a handful of people, who see lies from within and try to persuade defrauded people that they shouldn’t believe these lies. However, they remain unnoticed. People want to be deceived. This is the strangest phenomenon. People don’t really want to hear the truth. Political speeches are something, which can be compared with lullabies. People listen to them and calm down. They prefer to live for the day and don’t think about the future. They prefer not to notice threats in order not to spoil their mood. They live now and here and try to not think much of their remote fate. People are afraid of panic and prefer calmness by any means, even if thus they sacrifice their future.

Politics

Politics is one of the most discussed topics nowadays. The fact that many people discuss political matters, which affect their lives and the fact that they can influence politics by their active position, is one of unquestionable achievements of democracy. Politics is interesting to people of different age groups, social classes and people of various professions. There are two approaches to politics: a professional approach and dilettantish one. Professional approach implies deep analysis, prognostication, global and holistic view on a problem. Dilettantish one is on the contrary: it is narrow-minded and simplified. It mostly refers to citizens, who are interested in politics so far as it influences their welfare and wage rates. Among these people conspiracy theories are very popular. For them it is very difficult to understand the laws of international market, economic laws and so on. For them it is much simpler to imagine an image of an almighty person or a group of such persons, who rule this world and that everything in global policy depends on them. It is very interesting and a little bit paranoiac point of view and it has been existed for a long time and seems to last many years ahead because these theories are impossible to prove or refute. One thing is obvious here: this is the easiest way to comprehend, understand and explain all the intricacies of the global policy to a little and narrow-minded person, who knows nothing in international economical and political relations.
