I wouldn't enter public service of my own accord, but I would serve if called upon.
There is a lot of honor to be had in public service, but not at the expense of being pulled every which way by special interests and big money. I would gladly fill the spot if required and would do so to the best of my ability if called to do so, but otherwise forget it. I would be a privilege to serve the public as they deem fit, but I'm afraid I want no part of the carrot "big money" holds out in front of most politicians these days.
