Philosophy is actually the only thing that would directly be needed in terms of politics. So what better to create your own moral than philosophy? What is going to be in your own thoughts if not the comparison of the thoughts of other thinkers?
Why do people see philosophy as uselees if it is actually what the human being needs to create a critical mind and to create a moral of its own.
It makes you think, make contrast in other people's ideas, see the reflection of past thinkers in nowaday's life.
I believe that whoever thinks philosophy is useless is because it is still inside Platon's cave.
