so a politician will say ANYTHING at all to get elected and then disregards anything said, because they are NOT held accountable later.

a bidnessman will say anything at ALL because these are just opening tactics to try and see the other sides strategy and weakness and to point to worst possible outcomes if the sides fail to meet agreements. HOWEVER once anything is signed on the line, a biddnessman is ACCOUTABLE for what is then agreed.
