Fixed that for ya.

Since you also acknowledge that greed is not a good thing, why would you want to support a system that is BUILT ON GREED?

For myself, I would like to see a system that would punish greedy people for the advantage of the meek. NOT the other way around.

What's the problem in making people dumber?

If the people are dumber, they'll be more easily manipulated and that saves a lot of money from the Big Media persuading people!

The big companies don't want smart consumers, they want consumers that buy - governments don't want smart citizens criticising bad developments either. Ignorance is bliss, and a strength too, just not for us regular sheeplings.

I really do NOT like people, who think that articles, (pretty much ALL news) that increase our awareness are a waste of time. It pisses me off even more, that these same morons do NOT realise that they, and they're opinions have been effected. If you're feeling impotent and powerless, please do not try to spread that kind of feebleness. It's depressing and a lie to tell people that they are powerless.

For example, I read this on slashdot, paste the news to a dozen IRC-channels and make a lot of people grasp the idea of Google's draconian EULAs. Engineering opinions is neverending and DEFINITELY worth doing. Please carry on spreading information.

Don't forget that after one can vote from home, or better yet, cellphone, votes can be sold MUCH easier. I don't think blackmail is out of question either.

Also, once daddy has made up his mind who the family is voting for, he can observe his family-members vote for the 'right' candidate.

It is still necessary to go to give your vote in a voting booth and for the sake of democracy, I suggest that voting should remain as easy and uncomplicated as it is. This is one of the only things I pride myself on being conservative of.
