“The opinion of ten thousand men is of no value if none of them know anything about the subject.” —Marcus Aurelius
Nowadays, our electorate can more properly be described by,
“The opinion of ten thousand men is of no value if they are all willfully ignorant.”
There are adequate means now for ANY person in these (dys)United States to be adequately well-informed about the important issues of the day, but, sadly, few bother to take the time or make the effort to do anything but soak up–directly or indirectly–the viewpoints of the Ruling Elite mostly via the Mass MEdia Podpeople Hivemind.
Keep in mind: your ignorant, self-enstupiated neighbor’s vote counts just as much as yours does.
Educate the stupid.
