politics of life

By Chris Van Ingen

With an election coming up it important to remind ourselves before we drown in promises we have to focus the politics of life.
Today’s politician’s often use a strategy called Game Theory which promotes the idea that if everyone goes for the same goal someone loses but if we go for different things everyone wins. I believe with this theory it is community that loses.
Politics shouldn’t be about winning it should be about working together because to change the world our leaders have to stop operating in these cliques known as political parties.
We should call on our leaders to stop the Machiavellin back stabbing and work on the environmental, economic and social justice issues that affect all Australians.
I was in a political party for 6 months but constant point scoring made it impossible to advocate for what I believe in.
We need to remember our humanity and share the abundance of this country with everyone.
We need to save the environment before it’s too late and we need to commit more resources to empowering people with disabilities now and that way it will cost less to support people with disabilities in the future.
So before you vote for the same old Joe Blow you usually vote for please remember this article and elect people you think will serve this country with humanity.
