Theoretically speaking democracy works, but when the practice simply does not work. From my point of view, this happens for two reasons:
currently democracy in its purest form there (in its definition as the power in the hands of the people). What exists now are representatives of the people to whom they delegate the responsibility for making decisions and looking for the best for the people. -
The other reason why I consider does not work is because most people are stupid, plain and fully idiot because of this democracy, from the beginning, is a lost game, because fools are most .
I'm not saying that a monarchy or dictatorship are better, the dictators are gorillas, and the monarchy is a thing of the past, I'm just saying that perhaps it is necessary, among other things, evolve the governance paradigm democratic society towards
looking focus is on the second point, which showed another crazy idea: society in general tends to eliminate the stupidity and intelligent people.
Examples:
Athenians.
: Pythagoras, Aristotle
The earth is not the center of the universe revolves around the sun -
Copernicus, Galileo Galilei .
Before this I dare say that jealousy and resentment by the poor, those who stand out by having a more developed intellect is innate. The useless feel better about their ignorance because it's easier and easier to live well, and the government is easier to control people is foolish, the clever are then exiled by society and government.
- The radical attempt to match the lower the average intelligence of a country, hence the exile of the brightest minds, disappearances, deaths ... For this kind of power, lucid minds that pose a danger and are branded as subversive elements rebels, troublemakers. The systematic elimination of those stand out for having an intellect that stands out, has always been part of society. From basic education, if you leave the standards of behavior and way of doing things are punished and segregated, to the acceptance of dogmas and rules for belonging to society. From childhood teach you to be uniform, without personality mold you to become mediocre. High in this is that while the smart ones are those that solve problems and help improve things, are the idiots who enjoy it, and this helps to spread ignorance to assure fools do not have thought.
Now, taking into account the humorous side this issue, we have the theoremsalary Dilbert, which asserts that the less you know you get better pay. Sometimes this can happen for the following

By chance I came across a page

Wow, this guy complemented my idea and gives an interesting twist to see intelligence as something that in terms of evolution has a tendency to disappear.
I quote:
- "Intelligence is bound to end because it is a provisional authority, all instrumental in the adventure of the species and not always necessary and therefore obsolete ... we live in a time of promotion of stupidity, be idiot wins, is what is fitting, because it is comfortable wins, intelligence, creating problems Questions, questions. "
- Those prepared, both men and women, tend to breed a few descendants, if any, due to the use of birth control measures, and also that have diverse interests and activities to complement your style and philosophy of life. And on the opposite side Where there is a higher birth rate? In the lower social classes, which are usually those who have less education and fewer access to information.
- Thus the "best" specimens in terms of intelligence will never reach the number of births of people a little more ordinary. The growth is exponential, it can not compete. Well, I think this article almost comes to the essay category, so I will conclude with the contents of the book of Aprile. (Of which I have certainly not found much, if anyone knows where to get it in Mexico, please let me know.) the book "In Praise of the imbecile
- : the unstoppable rise of stupidity." First law: "The fool survives. The genius is extinguished. "
Corollary: "fools Before Dead .
The Beginning:
"
The evolution prefers a live fool a dead genius. In exchange for giving us life, evolution asks us the brain. "
- " Modern man lives to become silly. " .
Fifth Law: "Unity is strength but not the stupidity."
To which I say, First died before asshole!
"The rise of stupidity leads to comfort and ferocity, because a feature of stupidity is violence. The stupid when no arguments screams, sometimes raises his hands and if you have to destroy to all who ask questions, afraid of the power of intelligence. "
- Pino Aprile

And yet ... moves.
- Nevertheless, humanity progresses, and this already gives some hope.
