The Politics of Authority

The Politics of Authority is how, as a society, we co-operatively make choices.

Political governance is how the few carry out the choices of the many.

Politics gives the authority of a society’s choice to an elected representative, to carry it out.

It is how we effectively move society forward by making choices that benefit society in general.

Modern society is confused between status, wisdom and authority.

Authorised representatives in government are granted status in the absence of wisdom.

Poli-tics means the thoughts of the many.

When the thoughts of the few are focused on their own status and the benefits of their status, the choices of the many become compromised.

Without wisdom, status allows an abuse of authority.

The pursuit of status with authority and without wisdom will never attain political correctness.
