It is difficult to generalize about all politicians, since this would include people from the state and local level. Locally, such people come from nearly every walk of life-- former teachers or professors, businesspeople, lawyers, professional athletes, even members of the clergy. But if you are asking about presidents and members of congress, a large percentage have either been lawyers or had a law degree. Another large group come from the business world; some worked as educators; some have been military professionals. There have also been a few members of congress who were athletes, medical doctors, broadcasters, realtors, and farmers.

Why do politicians steal from the public?

Most human beings are selfish to a degree, and most people will want to get money if the can. It has been claimed that power corupts people, however some people say that people are corrupt naturally. These people argue that power creates opportunities for them to show that corruption. Because most politicians have power, they often use it for their own benefit. However, it can be argued that this does not really mean that they are more greedy than people who are not politicians, it just means that they have more opportunities than them.
