Say what you like about aristocracy, but they were expected to lead from the front.

In Roman (republic era) society the wealthy and powerful were expected to play larger roles during war time.

Totally agree with this, but it’s not a holup

Every war that ever started was because a politician did a piss poor job

Saddam Hussein did challenge George W. bush to a duel (with swords) when Vush invaded Iraq, but Bush never replied

Normalize consequences for actions. And I don’t mean we should tar and feather politicians for deliberately manipulating the stock market and participating in insider trading, but I won’t rule it out. I’m talking about how there is a list of evil people who raped children and we have names, they should be in prison, or worse. It kills me that nobody cares to fix these wrongs.

They will be a lot of friendly fire if Donny went to fight in the war

Said this forever with a different angle.
I think they should fight each other celebrity death match style. Put the fights on pay per view, and use the money to actually payoff the debts and actually use it for the people.
Problem is that it’ll never end. The people running the pay per view would be corrupt as well, so I guess we could put them in the earlier fight cards.

If king Albert the first can stand shoulder to shoulder while sending his son to run messages I’m sure politicians can do something

That reminds me of the proposal that the nuclear codes should be implanted in the body of a presedential aid, so that if they want to start a nuclear war they have to kill a person personally to do it.
Pete and Donnie should be part of operation human shield.

King’s used to fight other frontlines with their troops, what happened?

Normalize giving your local politicans consequences if courts refuse to.

Except they would get officer jobs and send troops to be slaughtered, as they have no experience, but understand how to be yes men.

What about wars that need to be fought and wernt started by your sides politicians. Like how many said we need to stop what’s happening in Gaza or Ukrain, would that count.

This was done for a while. Then people started targeting them causing an entire civilization collapse from 1 battle in some cases.

Politicians hide them selves away.
They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that all to the poor.

Why do they always send the poor?
