We are seeing everyday the results of democracy's one overriding failure--the ability of the uninformed to participate in decision making. It is a thankless and unending struggle to inform and correct the masses about the real facts of any political discussion as they are uninterested and easily led.
Therefore it is impossible to always succeed. If a general were fighting a war with only hit-or-miss strategy the people would argue for his dismissal yet they continue to have faith that democracy can be set aright. But democracy is a million generals, 99 percent unready for such a position. Whether Democracy or Varna-asrama (a system we shall speak more of in the future in America theFlame of Freedom blog), education is needed. Only the intelligent can lead.-Md
