The Age of Irresponsibility

I was listening to the story_ on BBC how the British pensioners
are forced by the fear of Brexit to move from Spain back to UK,
because they are afraid Spanish government would stop paying them
their pension when (and if) UK leaves EU. And that’s just
because two classmates now in the Conservative Party were not
able to sort out their issues in the reasonable manner.
Mr. Donald Trump suggested abolition of NATO promises to its
members in the Baltic states, just to make himself look like even
more caring for the ordinary people. Besides, there are rumors,
that he runs his candidacy just to resolve some of his personal
issues and to make more money for covering his bankrupted
business, and that he actually does not want to be the President
of US at all. Or perhaps it is_ just a conspiracy_ to get_
otherwise unelecteable Mrs Clinton to the White House. The most
crazy thing about this is that sometimes I am not sure whether it
is not possible.
Also, we have here in Czechia a president, where nobody knows for
certain why he is a president at all. Perhaps as a revenge,
perhaps to prove himself, perhaps just to make happy somebody to
whom he is tied by some (probably not very nice) favors. We don’t
know the reasons, however we can observe an older rather sick
a bit drunk gentleman who spreads around himself hatred, insults,
and attacks on everybody just to make himself more visible (and
perhaps to make somebody behind the scenes happy).
What is still the most shocking on all this is that I am still
shocked at all. I don’t want to put myself on too high a horse,
but I don’t know how not to look like it. I just cannot
comprehend mind of people who seem to be completely immune to
their conscience, who for the most trivial selfish reasons change
the fate of completely innocent people and these politicians
don’t seem to notice at all.
I don’t think I have much to say about this phenomenon, just
recording I observe it.
