Why anyone should hate politicians is beyond me.

Edit: I was talking about hating "politicians" as a profession. I am not talking about just office bearers, but also people whose career is politics, whether they win elections or not.

    There are definitely many power hungry and disingenuous politicians. Probably the vast majority. BUT hating politicians as a rule is just antidemocratic cynicism IMO. An excuse to not pay attention, to not hold politicians accountable, and to not want to compromise under any circumstance.
