Divided into 2

No wonder the words of PLATO is always true " the city is divided into two" - the rich and the poor, the weak and the strong. This is the biggest gap which is always a challenge to the governments to fill it. Is it because there are no efficient philosophers are absent or is it because wrong posts are held by right persons who should be at the posts they are good at.

In the context of today's politicians, most of them are hierarchical in nature be it business or sports or media most of the time the elders fail to identify the strengths of their heirs and solely depend on saving their past empire they have built. There is poor leadership which is produced with lack of proper exposure to the lower grass root level in relevance to politics and development.

Why is that very few people  who are intelligent choose to operate out of politics and large amount of individuals who are power seeking and poor change and transformation seeking stay in politics and even sustain their posts by satisfying the important decision makers. It is all depended on the upbringing of each individual the imparting of values and also the things the parents do. That is why Plato strikes clearly on spending large amount of time when we are young in sports, music and most important understanding themselves and later based on their capacities they are placed in the society. This model is not at all practical when it comes to a large population but very much that can be implemented in each families.

To summarize the above lines, unless there is a stronger base there cannot be a taller levels, people who made it to the history are people who have stronger bases and have proved their stand a harder times.
To lead, to be a politician you have to be a person of experience at all levels. Unless there is proper parenthood it cannot produce great outputs as great and extraordinary individuals.
