The Servant or The Master?
In order to become the master, the politician poses as the servant.
~~ Charles De Gaulle ~~ (1890 - 1970)
That’s exactly what they do! I think they intentionally come up with titles such as ‘public servant’ to make the people feel good. LOL
Now, when a politician is elected to any office, it’s usually for a certain number of years and , therefore, the contract is essentially like that of an employer and employee, so they could call themselves ‘public employees’. But no, they call themselves ‘public servants’ and act like masters. It’s only a rare politician who contests an election to become a servant; most of them only pose as servants to get elected to the positions that have powers and privileges of a master.
