Abstract

The first problem that we are facing in our democracy is a lack of trust in our elected representatives. The lack of trust is that we increasingly feel that they are in it for themselves. This is probably not true for the vast majority of them, but there is no doubt that we now believe they are putting personal gain ahead of good policy formation.
