Generally politicians aren't useless - the problem is pandering to diverse audiences - everyone is an armchair expert on what should be done, and then thinks politicians are useless when they don't do what that person wants.
And I wouldn't generalise from your own country, to the rest of the world. Some countries do hold their politicians in relatively high regard (compared to other professions). Anyway, you are less likely to find "useless" civil engineers, doctors, nurses, pilots, chemists, etc, etc, etc (at least in the countries I've lived in) than in IT. A while back, I think those professions had the same level of cowboy-ism and lack of standards that IT does today. In another 100 years, it might be different.

I've seen nothing to suggest other industries aren't full of generally useless people. Heck, look at politics, and that's the world's second oldest profession. ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
