> Ursula comes from a family of influential EU politicians and has been groomed since childhood to take high ranking jobs in politics. Do we say such things if a dentist encourages their child to become a dentist? Or an MD towards being an MD? An accountant to account? A programmer to a programmer? > That woman hasn't worked a job a day in her life […] Being a politician (or in the government bureaucracy) is a job. It is a career. There is domain of knowledge in governance that one must learn to be effective just like there is in any other human endeavour. |

You're mixing up encouragement with cronyism, which I find in bad faith.

The point was that China's leaders have advanced degrees not related to politics, not whether being a politician is a job or not.
