    I'm still curious as to what "educated" and "uneducated" mean.
    I too hold that democracy is a bad ideal.

    For one, it is not achieveable.

    For another, it is but a sham: a vail, that eventual leads to a corrupt, government (one could make the argument that a democracy, by its' very nature is corrupt, if it could even be achieveable).

    The Athenian government (and its' history), proves this enough.

    Educated means an education (typically in school). But at the root of it, it means not commiting crimes against your fellow man.

    Uneducated means a person who scorns knowledge (in all forms). And works, not for the betterment of him (or herself), or others. Rather, the detriment of both.
