Let's talk politics today (controversial).

Today we are going to do the unthinkable!

We are going to talk about politics… One of the basic rules in society is “don't under any circumstances talk about politics”

People get upset, it's polarizing and it's not worth it…

But what the hell… Today I want to discuss one very important aspect of politics that people completely misunderstand and that's ruining their whole life

I wanted to do something that I never do and everybody recommends you shouldn't do. And we are going to talk about politics, my friend.

I'm going to talk to you about stuff that relates to politics, but not only to politics. It is just life in general.

I am not into politics at all. But one thing that I realized and I recognize is that you have to recognize and to acknowledge your mistakes. I should actually be a little bit more into politics and you will understand why.

I’ve been watching this documentary about Donald Trump. It's fascinating. I mean everything this guy has done and the whole thing about Trump is fascinating.

I really don't know much about Trump. So it's not whether I'm a supporter or if I'm not a supporter. It's just that this documentary, I tie it to other stuff that's happening.

There is this feeling in many countries that rich people always get the president that they want. How is it that we only have presidents for rich people? How does that work? It's unfair. We're not happy about this, which is exactly what people are saying about the president in France.

So you might have this belief yourself that, oh, man, you know what? We only get presidents who care about the rich and stuff. And this is precisely what I want to talk about today.

So the poorer part of the population just thinks it's due to corruption and that there is nothing you can do about it. This is how it works. Money talks and the president of the rich is actually going to get in the office and then we're going to be screwed, OK?

And when I look at it right, the answer is not in the money, OK? Money has doesn't have anything to do with it. If you ask me the problem here is actually a mind-set problem. And it's about how you see life, how you perceive life and the events that happen in life.

Here's the thing. The richest part of the population sees the ramification of what a presidency means. When there is a new president, things are going to happen. The richest part of the population is basically looking at stuff like what's in it for me? OK, what's in it for me if this guy gets in the office? And what impact is this going to have on my life? I so they do think about these things ahead of time.

Whereas the other side of the population, the poorer side of the population. I'll say I'm making the big generalizations right so please bear with me. They just assume that nothing can be done. There's nothing they can do and they're going to be the victim of the system. So they're basically going to be presented with the president. They're just going to inherit this person.

Then we're screwed and life sucks and stuff. So you know what? I'm not even going to bother. I don't care about politics. And you might be in that situation yourself where you're like, oh, man, what's the point?

OK, but here's the thing now. Please understand that a president can make or break your life for X amount of years that they will be in the office. They can make your life miserable. So even if you're not interested in politics and stuff, you still you might still be interested in making sure that you don't get screwed for the next X years.

So you should be a little bit more interested in it, you know, regardless if you're right wing, left wing or blah, blah, blah. It's a question of mind-set.
