What is politics' goal?

Is it true that political debates are Always searching to deal with problems like overflowings of water and trying to prevent the issues of turning the tap off from being discussed?
Isn't the response to that question the only barrier to the resolving of collective problems?
Isnt everyone a bit of a politician?
Isn't Christ the only one to speak of turning the tap off, when a huge majority speaks of overflowings of water? And what is politics' goal?

French people speaking to french people..

You put it yourself: politics is unable to make people understand each other, for it promotes individualities to the detriment of authentic reciprocal listening to the others. The tempted people, like sheep, only agree on talking of overflowing waters , and never of turning off the tap, which only Christ did dare to propose. Remember: He told Pilate He came to bear witness to Truth; No Wonder He finished on the cross. Whereas Pilate knew Jesus was innocent, he also knew he would never have enough courage to save him from death. Indeed, nobody dares, nor may be want to bear witness to Truth: If there are overflowing waters, it's because first a tap was turn on far far in the past

Yes they have: wondering why Pilate, as politician and governor governed, together with the crowd of Jews, the way he did, in the case of Jesus.
