Default Litmus test

I recently heard a comment regarding how to judge our public servants.
Don't remember who said it, so I can't give attribution.
It was something like this:

"A statesman is concerned about the next generation. A politician is
concerned about the next election."

Great way to evaluate our "public servants".
