It's not blatantly obvious how this article relates to politics.... but it makes me think of how so many berate both the poor and those in high-responsibility positions over bad choices. People tend to be excessively harsh on that... and what it comes down to is that maybe we have too high a bar set for people in the choice-making department.
Consider the implications for certain groups if choice-making drains.

I think when you look at the numbers of frivelous or excess choices piled on people, you'll find the groups with the most are those groups who tend to not succeed... and those groups we judge most harshly.

I'll just give you that to chew on for now. Read the article if you feel like it and post what you think.
It is much easier to criticize the choices of others than to look at your own.
