Any power or freedom that politicians give themselves is very difficult to take back

I live in a very socialistic country where we don't mind paying s lot of tax, but politicians get special treatment when it comes to social welfare and especially pensions.

They have all campaigned to limit this bun none have done anything when they finally got into power. And this is in a fairly legit country where things seem to be pretty democratic
