Governments are bad; I get it.
But is it tiring to constantly mistrust the people we've put in charge of our shared resources or is it resignation to keep choosing the same people each time instead of the ones you CAN trust?
I didn't put anybody in charge. I could theoretically employ them. They are employees.
When someone wants trust, they are the last person to be trusted.
I obviously don't choose much.
First, because an anonymous vote where you can vote only for one candidate, not even against. Something similar to likes\dislikes would make more sense, but with each voter getting, say, the amount of likes equal to floor of 1/3 choices in the ballot, and the same amount of dislikes.
Second, because I live in Russia.
