WHY?

Seeking an explanation for what happens when ordinary citizens are appointed to some position of power, what it is what changes?

We wrote this article to look for an explanation of what exactly happens when ordinary citizens are appointed to some position of power. What exactly changes? Why do they say one thing and do another? Why do they systematically lie just to have five minutes of fame and power? Even knowing this, why do the citizens of a community, state or country support them? Why does it seems as if sometimes they're looking for the most corrupt candidate as if they were only looking to make easy money?

A businessman from Tijuana once said, "There is no evil that lasts for three or six years," referring to those who reach a political position. Unfortunately this phrase is constantly repeated, as citizens who come to fill these positions, especially the Governor or Mayor ones, enter a sort of race to try to transcend as the most corrupt and unpunished leaders who have previously gone through these positions.

Political campaigns begin at the same time as the publication of this edition, and with them come citizens from different social backgrounds, different ideologies, and for the first time with independent candidates who seek to win at all costs. They start black campaigns, they will try to publish everything that seems as an adversary's dark secrets, everything that "they represent"; they will spend millions of dollars for the purchase of wills and after disappointing any thinking voter, those supporters that remain faithful to each political party will be the ones who decide the future of the next three years, and when election have come to an end, they will all go out to eat and celebrate, as if it were a Disney film. That which is said during a campaign never comes to fruition.

As an example, we can consider the campaign slogan of Governor Francisco Vega, "People Rule". A simple slogan that citizens on social networks use to make memes, due to its unfortunate and obvious inconsistency.

We look for definitions, phrases of politicians and thinkers who could clarify us why citizens who come to power are transformed and corrupted. To start of, here is a definition: "Corruption is the action and effect of corrupting, depraving, spoiling, bribing, perverting and damaging. It is the practice of making an abuse use of power, function or means of obtaining an economic advantage or otherwise. Political corruption is the misuse of public power for an illegitimate advantage. Corruption is linked to other crimes, as he or she who is corrupt will often incur in corruption to allow or ask for something illegal to happen. Influence peddling, bribery, extortion and fraud are some of the most common displays of corruption".

-Why is it commonly said that citizens are the ones to

blame for the corruption of those who come to power?

-Why is it commonly said that there is no progress

without cheating?

-Why do politicians think that everyone is like them?

-Why do politicians say, "We didn't invent corruption"?

Then who did?

-Why is it that the more corrupt a society is, the more laws

it will have?

-Why is it commonly said that corruption is present in all

men, and that it is only a matter of numbers?

-Why is it commonly said that corrupt politicians are not the

problem, but rather the system that encourages corruption?

-Why are the prostitution of politics, business and bureaucracy

due to dark money?

-Why is the infection power of corruption more lethal

than a pandemic?

-Why are black novels so popular? Why are there so many

similar cases of corruption everywhere?

-Why do Mexican politicians steal without remorse? If they

are rich and the country is poor, then why do they still loot?

Most of them do not pay taxes, but that is comparatively

speaking, that is of small transcendence. They take loans

from banks and do not pay them back. In exchange for

government contracts they receive commissions from

those friends or companies that awarded them.

-Why is it commonly said that in Mexico, our federal, state

and local leaders are elected by the masses, when that is

clearly not the case?

Why do officials keep spending the money of their master?

We, the common people, sweat blood as if we were beasts

of burden, only to allow for corrupt and greedy politicians to

-fatten their pockets by doing absolutely nothing.

-Why are independent candidates faced with so many obstacles?

-What exactly do parties fear so much?

-Why do electoral courts favor the interests of the parties

and not those of citizens?

-Why is there a Court of the State of Baja California that

deals with resources and challenges of local voting, but

that has no power when federal elections are held? Why

do we have to maintain it in the meantime?

-Why do we give more value to politics than to justice?

-Why do citizens involved in politics know nothing about

the scope of their responsibilities?

-Why isn't there a single renowned politician in jail?

-Why are politicians angry at criticism, yet they do not recognize

that they deserved such judgment?

-Why does a ruler flinch when knowing and having evidence

of corruption of its employees? Is it because said

corruption is colluded?

-Why must a ruler follow the instructions of his party to

the detriment of citizens and provide positions as if they

were payments for favors?

-Why does ruler not recognize that their worst enemies

are those who always approve of everything?

-Why does a ruler not recognize his or her limitations and

seeks the best talent to transcend?

-Why those who taste the power of politics seek to live

from budget at all costs?

-Why does a ruler seek to silence the media? Does he or

she not know that by chasing a medium or communicator

they increase their prestige, unless this is also corrupt?
