Elite's

Elite's have enourmus power (that we the common person give them) they use this power to gain things for their personal benefit. For one there were forty something people on this Island that wanted a roof over their tennis court, well now they bought it (with tax money). They sadly forgot to measure the space the had and compare it to the space the would need, the side effect that a (for lack of a better word) plastic bubble lies in a storage facility. This plastic for is already paid for but now it has no use whatsover. Other similar things are happening on these Islands for decades now, basically the problem is that certain elitsts want to have something if it is a over seized community hall or a libary, nothing is done in a efficient manner that would serve everyone. These are small scale examples of what is happening all over the world in politics. Instead of working together for the ultimatly common goal which supposedly is to servewho ever they were elected by. They continue these pitty wars that do not serve anyone, now how can that be stopped?
Why does no one take charge and state the obvious, that they don't know what they are doing and that they should leave it before they break more things then they already did. I have talked to many people that are unhappy because of misrepresentation or that want to do something but can not because the elite's horde their power and defend it with everything at their deposit.
What has to happen to wake everyone up and show them that they give that power to the elite's, it is not as if the elite's had a right onto that power, they just happen to be elected now what would happen if we elected someone outside this elite group? They might immidiatly attack him and try to destroy. Otherwhise they might reconsider and accept him/her at once.
