Then again. by old people, you are probably referring to the stereotypical old white southern group. They are affected more by their upbringing and beliefs than their desire to live the good life while they are still alive. | ||

Well most philosophers of that time were angry at democratic systems because it ended up causing Socrate's death for one thing! Even Aristotle had to make a distinction between "democracy" (the bad form of government by many) and "politeia" (the good form of government by many). Arguably because the intellectual world wasn't too fond of that whole democracy thing. The distinction between the two is pretty minimal, to the point where he eventually started using the terms interchangeably. Also I'm not sure Socrates was elitist enough to want a timocracy whereas Plato most certainly was. I might be wrong about Socrates though but that would blow my mind. | ||

once you get rich and lead the world in income and science, it's easy to just turn it into a fundamentalist state; now you can support 10 troops without having to pay a resource cost! | ||

If you pass, you can vote and your vote counts as a vote. No electorial college crap anymore. If you fail you dont get a vote, but you can try and learn some shit and take it again next election. | ||
