Why are many of Europe's leaders are childless? Isn't that strange? These people are creating laws and policies which will affect generations of people and they don't even have any skin in the game. They are fundamentally out of touch.
Doing a google image search of "Angela Merkel Family" or "Stefan Löfven family" (PM of Sweden) and its night and day compared to "Barack Obama family" or "Donald Trump Family".
Whether you are conservative or liberal, we all agree that we need leaders who are thinking about the future generations of the nation. Too much short-sightedness going on. Anyone who has raised kids knows that it changes you.
- _of 10y agoFrom a sample size of 2, let's conclude that many of Europe's leaders are childless!
- devmunchies 10y agoAdd Paolo Gentiloni (Italy) and Alexander Van der Bellen (Austria) and thats already 14% of european union. I shouldn't have said "many", but "more than comfortable".
