And the citizens are not at fault ? Why should a representative have to take the blame for a crime to which one third of a country commits ?
Is it a leader's job to make it's subjects behave in a lawful manner ? Authorities aren't the only ones upholding the law, I believe it is a citizen's job to do the same otherwise we have no need for the law ...
And similarily for big businesses, there are bad CEOs but at the same time you forget that there are bad employees. If a company makes bad products or gives bad services is the fault supposed to be entirely placed on it's leader ?
You give the common man too much benefit of the doubt. If they voted to strip the rich minority of any wealth is that supposed to be righteous ? If they voted to have a man be executed because they didn't like him does that mean they are right for it ? Let's go one step further, if they opted for anarchic chaos to be free to commit their own crimes by their will on an individual basis is unleashing the pandora's box the right answer in comparison to having law abiding citizens ?
Does self-responsibility not matter to you ?
