Look no farther than...names for the new team in Minnesota, the new team in Denver, the Student Store at U of C, Rory Fitzpatrick amongst a plethora of other NHL All-Star blunders, Donald Trump, Brexit, Olympic plebiscites...we could go on and on forever.

Democracy is heavily flawed.
Even the Ancient Greeks acknowledged that only the educated and qualified should have the ability to vote and be listened to and the rest? They can pour wine and pound sand.
