Biofuels do more harm than good, UN warns

[RickB]

Candidate selection is immaterial. Fact is, the majority of voters are perfectly content to elect "leaders" that continually reward the electorate by giving them back an increasingly large share of the public treasury. If you think that will materially change without revolution or the complete meltdown of our financial structure, you are dreaming. We are witnesses to the decline and end of our democratic experiment. How long it takes to get to the end has yet to be determined. But it surely, absolutely is coming.

Without getting too political, I'd point out that who has been getting richer tends to be the ones who finance the candidates directly or through PACS.
