I was speaking to the participatory democratic notion.

Of course, to have a fruitful democracy, you must have people who are educated to that notion and to the inclusiveness of a diversity in population. Every single person is important to it.

I think I’ve mentioned around here, I had a good friend that was involved in education form a political standpoint and also was involved in the mental health field.

Before he died 3 years ago, he was getting more and more convinced that all the fighting over school funding, charter schools, home-schooling, Texas Book Fuckers, etc, was all geared to tear this countries education system down for the very reason as to allow the 1%ers to have total control and a ready work force of unquestioning robot direction followers.

In some ways, I fear he may have been right all along.
