"Now you could argue that politicians should be more accountable "
there's zero argument there ------------ political leaders ARE MORE accountable ----------- and the further up the ladder you go -------- the more accountable you should be
as a player in a football club - you represent that football club - as a Captain of that football club - you should VERY well know that you not only represent that club - but, you are seen as a LEADER of that club
it's exactly the same for any organization or family etc.
