About This Quote
Politics is downstream from culture and not the other way around. This is what you want to do if you want to be successful at your job. The quote goes on to say that if you don’t like the people in power, vote them out of office because it is not their fault they are there. It is the people’s fault for allowing them to get in office in the first place.
