| Politicians, by definition, have power. How do you easily remove or withhold it? |

| ▲ | meta_gunslinger 5 hours ago | parent [-] | | It's the degree of power they hold, not a binary. A politican in Switzerland has much less power than a politician in China. When your power is to determine which day the recycling truck is dropping-by, hardly anyone wants to coerce that power. But when it is e.g printing money the calculus is massively different. | | |
