      You still haven't told me why someone competent should want to be a politician in the west.

      Successful motivation of glory or duty for truly greats (e.g. Cincinnatus) are historic for a reason, you can't populate your government on those.

      Private rewards for the people we want in government are at least 3-5x in private industry.

      Maybe. Or it keeps going just enough to make people who believe in good governance miserable, because every country is running into the same problem.

      No successful hegemonic rivals, just a world of dysfunctional governments aside from tiny nations, where things bumble along just well enough

      Imagine if, say, Amazon could only pay management 170k for its top executives and 400k for its C-Suite.

      Don't think politicians are ever going to be in it for the money despots aside Like do you think Bezos would be motivated to be president if he we otherwise disinclined if we offered him another few billion?

          No, I think that paying commensurate with a Fortune 500 company CEO, and similarly for various stops on that career track, you attract more worthwhile people at the top of the funnel.

          Singapore has the highest paid cabinet in the world. Even after a huge reduction, the PM makes $1.7m USD a year.
