The political system is inherently set up for politicians to compromise for their self-interest — because money. For personal profit and/or to get re-elected. There was a decent New Yorker article I read on the matter a few years ago that suggested something along the lines that, even if a politician begins their career with the best intentions, the process of getting elected for higher and higher offices erodes those intentions. That's even if they had any decent intentions to begin with, of course.

Yeah, I respect their take at the same time that it ignores the history of at least the last hundred years. It's problematic trying to sector off one generation from another. We're all being worn down and have been since at least the mid or late 60s
