Not that I think politicians should have things thrown at them, but they should be far more accountable then they are. Most of them even in free countries have little to no accountability to the public. It's good for them to get out once in a while and experience things first hand. See the rage that has built up because of their decisions.
They are supposed to be people like you and me, responsible to you and me. Not able to dodge everything in secret meetings and posh invite only dinners.
Obviously China is a different example but they obviously deserve it more than most.
