"A popular Government, without popular information, or the means
of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or,
perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance: And a
people who mean to be their own Governors, must arm themselves
with the power which knowledge gives."

-- James Madison (letter to W.T. Barry, 4 August 1822)

Agreed. Let's get rig of Republicanism, which only exists because of a
self-sustaining ignorance on the part of its constituents, and its
self-perpetuating interference with real education.
