Suma -

That is a fascinating article. It reinforces some things that I have seen and some things I have believed intuitively, and gives me good information about why.

I hope that we do begin teaching civics in our schools, with and emphasis on promoting this kind of understanding. I remember trying to promote certain ideas in a civics class in the eighth grade, and there was only one other student who could even understand what I was trying to say. The teacher and everyone else just thought I was a looney. I think it would have been good for the entire class, including me, to have had a broader view.
