Not in principle, no.

Although most leaders do tend to be wealthy, so clearly prone to corruption.

Would be great to pick leaders at random like Jury duty, who go back to their normal lives after. Let's see if they have the balls to start a war without lifetime security afterwards.

I hate to break it to you, but most people who're wealthy got there for good reasons, not some selfish greed that didn't fall to you.

In the UK at least, I'd like to see the Lords replaced with a meritocratic chamber with members required to be nominated by their peers in their respective fields and drawn from across economics, science, the arts, business etc. They would need to have a proven track record in their respective areas of expertise. That way you might actually get effective scrutiny and amendments of legislation put forward by the Commons.

Instead we seem to currently have a system where politicians are rejected by the electorate and punted out of office during General Elections but then immediately appointed to the House of Lords so they can continue their political influence. It's absolutely disgraceful and makes a total mockery of democracy.

The argument for them is they are experts, not some tasty flavour of the month like we've seen with the last 2, 3, 4, 5 prime ministers?

Well the whole "the people of this country have had enough of experts" sure is working out well, isn't it?

Oh you know... Rich means they're successful, ergo competent.

But as leaders the hypocrisy (ergo corruption) shows when they tax those less well off, whilst giving themselves tax breaks.
