Allowing the uneducated to vote is the cause of ALL the concern.
When this country (and indeed the world) was run by the upper classes (who had a stake in society and financed ALL its plans) ran everything the world was much better.
The Victorian philanthropists were adored by those who worked for them - hundreds of thousands lined their funeral processions - and they gave people a skill, a home, education, and a place in society.
Now - they skive and do nothing and DEMAND the world (ie those who DO work !) give them more.
How on earth could you expect such a society to progress?
Again wrong ITK,and I've pointed this out before.
The greatest age of The glorious British Empire came with the two successful Reform Acts of 1832 and 1867...letting at the end the vast majority of working men choose the government.
When the landed classes ran the empire they were drunk inefficient fools,like Prince George.We lost America under the previous type of governing,but after reform gained the greatest worldwide empire in history.
The working man keeps an eye on lazy fat good for nothing scroungers born into wealth.The Industrial Revolution made us rich,and that was done by working men with real talent,not by silly toffs stuck on a Bakewell plantation...
And Hedda,while democracy has its faults there is no better alternative for advanced countries like ourselves.
Giving more power to the working classes would mean less idiots like Bush/Blair getting away with the mess they made...both coincidently were from the upper classes....nuff said.  |

Noam Chomsky on the disasters of the Middle East
really, politicians are the most dangerous people on Earth and yet they get to decide important matters that affect us all.
How on earth did someone like George Bush Jnr get elected? are half the US voters brain dead?
Why did Brits vote for a PR man to run the country?. Ar you mad?
Why did Oz elect a man described as "the most hated PM in the world" by the NYTimes - he even makes G.Bush Jnr look intelligent?
JK is right- democracy is a total failure. |
