Not helping ourselves

watched another documentary and realized that we are sometimes the ones who got ourselves into position to be screwed over. by not knowing who are the right leaders to vote for. a politician tried to save a state from financial crisis. passing a law that were not popular among the bankers. in the next election, the bankers funded his rival, got him unseated and the law was repealed shortly after coming into effect. 

so somebody tried to save you. but because you did not realize you needed saving, someone else who stands to benefit from a change in leaders conned you into voting for their puppet candidate. and the poor dude who tried to save you actually lost his seat. 

that may be a good reason why most people save themselves.
