Humans just don’t seem to be good at long term consequences. And governments are very very bad at anything that doesn’t help their prospects of getting re-elected. I now realise that that is all they care about, and all they have ever cared about since Howard at least. It’s so discouraging.
Yes. It seems that a term in government is nothing more than an extended election campaign.
Yes I totally agree, I never really thought about the short terminist thinking of politics before and how it’s just not working for the situations we are now facing. Can kicking is the worst thing we can do but they only think in terms of short periods of time.
🎯 They don’t seem to care about our falling birth rates either ❗️
