Rent-A-Cop posted:The lower you go down the levels of government the dumber things get. Local politics is basically High School 2.0. Can confirm this. My father was on the planning commission and environmental board of our small township (4,000 residents max over a semi-rural area). It was a constant fight against stupidity and attempts at corruption. You'd have some guy come in, win the mayoral position, and then try and pack the councils with his buddies. Who needs an impartial, knowledgeable committee member when you can install the local strip club owner because he's your drinking pal. I mean, yeah you do have a greater chance of fixing stuff if you're in local politics, but you're only fixing local issues. It's worthwhile work, but you're not going to change the world, and it's still going to involve a bunch of bullshit.
