Basically, we have been always targeted with the idea that politics means corruption, lies, "legal robbery", presidents of nations that simply do not care about the people nor take their promises made to the voters. We are constantly wondering what is the right party or who the right candidate is ? But what do you think is true politics ? How come we have forgotten on the Science itself, the one thats actually intesting and full of ethics and moral laws ?

The Science is just that a science. It has never been put into practice in real life.
The true nature of politics comes down to giving the power to the people. The human race in inherently savage, craving power and wealth over all.

I agree nowadays politics are legal robery, but I think it is not really due to politicians, but silly votters that let them do what they want. I think a righteous politics just can be done with a collective consiousness of what is good for humanity, and always thinking in the future. I mean, if everyone in a society knows what he want and the right way to get it, it would be easier to get trough a conscense and compel the politicians to do so.

Thats true.. in fact i love your answer and agree.. but these days we are more than convinced that no matter which way we go, our countries will always be in the hands of incapable people.. flooded with corruption, people that are willing to sell their souls for some personal gain.. so we are just simply sitting back and wondering which one is the least terrible .. We have come to accept it as faith and thats not right..
