why do we need politicians?

[Kira Del Rosario]

We need politicians because politicians are our voice in the government. They represent our thoughts and ideas. They communicate other government officers for us, however not all politicians are doing their job rightfully.

we need politicians, because we need a a role model to lead and to protect the  lives of its people, and also they are the voices of the community that suffers alots of problem , prior to that i know there are somes politicians aside from the good one some politicians are  corrupt they only prior thier interest than the interest of many people.

[bennysax]

We need politicians because at every strata their has to be people that would pilot the affairs of the economy. But is quite unfortunate that in most cases we have irresponsible men at the helm of affairs thereby leading to bad governance. Despite this challenge of bad governance as a result of bad politicians we still need politicians.

[tarzan2]

i think a lot of people are missing the point. we need leaders in government, but this does not have to be an institutionalized thing. why cant we have decentralized government where anyone can choose to take lead on any issue they want and if they have support their roles as leaders become solidified.

this year is the political year in my country indonesia, where every region elect candidate governor simultaneously. get a new leader for a better change of course

[seroja17]

we need politicians because they represent the people. Although many politicians are more selfish..

[BADecker]

We need politicians. After all, it makes these crooks and criminals much easier to identify than if they weren't politicians.

so i've been thinking about this a lot recently, and i would like to know if anyone can come up with a reason why politicians are still necessary for good government. i've come to realize that their whole relevance comes from a time itself irrelevant to the modern world. in developed countries, the vast majority of people plugged into cell phones and internet, why do we have to be under a system thats from a time when most people were not even literate? most modern governments of wealthy developed countries were formed prior to the development of modern technology, and it had become the norm in the establishment of these countries to develop a system of political representation for citizens in the form of politicians as democratic systems emerged.

and so, functionally, politicians are meant to represent us in government, correct?

internet and cell phones let basically all people communicate instantaneously all the time, and the average amount of education a person receives today is probably not so different than the average politician received a century ago.. and even right here right now i am representing my own ideas thanks to this technology and education..
like the factory worker whose function, supplanted by technology, is quickly being made obselete by robots, so are politicians can we not use things like ssl and https to build something to replace make politicians obsolete? i dont think many will argue that they perform well in their function, and could not use an upgrade. we can replace government buildings in capitals with a secure domain for everyone to have a hand in governing, or at least the opportunity if they care enough to want it. the USA is considered a democratic republic because we have a system where a few vote for the rest, and yet its government loves to place the democratic ideal above all else. what would more democratic than having more people voting more?

we all already have a digital representaton of ourselves that exists simply in our bitcointalk forum user accounts. why not extend the arena to government as well?

what is the need for politicians?
in the USA, career politicians spend their entire lives advancing through ranks in government (and probably have better job security than you do). their only job is to keep their corporate sponsors happy so they that can continue to look good when they need to be re-elected. they might as well dress like nascar drivers with the jumpsuits with all the logos and brands on them... and its not like people are not already aware of this even. the existing political ecosystem in which political correctness is the rubric by which politicians are elected and fired, but it has very little to do with their actual function as our government.
government for and by the self-same people would take care of this need, i think.

this idea just continues to seem increasing obvious to me, but it just seems we are constantly evolving to something increasing further from this and it all just seems so counterproductive. can progress happen, or are we just entrenched into the current state of bullshit?
politicians have been ruining too many things i care about lately.. its all hidden agendas and doublespeak. its becoming increasingly necessary to be oddly reminded that its not actually their job to progressively make things worse
i cant remember the last time my government (in the USA we all hail an orange mammal whose specialty is split between being an agressive twit on twatter and an emotionally-stunted 12 year old) acted with integrity, possibly because it was before i was born.

We need politician and government officials for that we have a good governance and  we have a rules to be follow so that we have good rule to follow in our country

[charmaine08]

In my opinion we need leaders or politician in our country to lead us in all aspects .To do some laws and to protect our country in all bad people like kidnappers and some more .Every election period we vote or choose the politician that deserve the slot but sometimes we vote a wrong person. So please vote a deserving person for every slot .

[kallen11]

we need a politicians to lead our country but unfortunately some of politicians are becoming greedy and selfish because of money and power.

[Sithara007]

Although I am not a big fan of the politicians, it is a truth that we need someone to run the government and administration. And not every single politician in the world is a corrupt crook. There are plenty of good guys out there. Examples are Sebastian Kurz (Chancellor of Austria), Tulsi Gabbard and Bernie Sanders.

This is the question that I ask myself every day.. haha

[Isotopes]

Yes, politicians are needed to b the government, in every organization, there are politics been play, you can become a favourite to any environment or organization without you being into politics. You can play politic by trying to deceive people until you get to your point of deceiving them, our environment is full of politics

[Kate Beckett]

We need politicians, because we need leaders, who will control the situation in the country. People can't do it by themselves, it is necessary to have special folks for that job. Politicians have to decide, lead and take responsibility for all society.

We need politician to role be a leader in our country so that for more improvements and successful peaceful living

[Tagabukid69]

Politicians are bridges to connect individual needs and wants to government institutions. They play essential role in society wherein through their means they address the problems in the institution:)

[shiki3226]

Politicians are expected to be people of integrity and wisdom. They should have enough knowledge or even be experts of different laws governing things so they can create rules that are useful for the people. They should be sincere in what they do.

[S4roZa]

The state needs politicians, both central and local government must be led by a competent person in politics. The state's progress also depends on the role of the politics itself.
