So, many belgian miss a gvt, although it doesn't seem to change things radically...Weird.

i was actually talking about the ones who were elected.
they entered politics and made themselves available for election to do something, and when they get elected, they get paid for doing that too. and now they aren't actually doing a very good job.
the country keeps going indeed, but there are some things (remember the immigration crisis this winter?) that need a real solution and some people who put their heads into something better than emergency hostels that cost the state tons of money.
all i see is a few guys trying to get somewhere and a few others blocking every idea that doesn't fulfill enough of their needs. some compromises need to be made but both parties refuse to do so. this way every attempt just gets stuck over and over again and they have to start over. we're just getting sick of it..
now they were talking about new elections, but i don't think i'll vote then. we went to vote, twice, and they always failed to do what they have to do.
