I really think that the problem is that simply put the politicians and so called diplomats should all be replaced by real people, like the local small business person
I look at world problems and think I could fix that in five minutes, it is not hard, but one would have to be a total dictator ---- because the bureaucrats, ie the non-elected actual rulers, will not allow remedies to be applied
The people are ultimately at fault due to laziness, just look at the success of the Labor (Communist) Party in Australia.
