Still, we both know that in order for an idea like yours to have any degree of practicality, it needs a translation. Regular folks may not be able to understand the General Theory, but they understand very well God given rights, and the pursuit of happiness. They understand that powers not delegated to the Federal government must remain with the States. Things like these. It would probably be very unethical to even try structuring a society around principles which most people cannot understand. A Dictatorship of the Smart is still a dictatorship. The "guts" of your thinking can be as complex as you wish, but the resulting principles and game rules must be comprehensible. Just like people who have no clue about what's inside a cell phone or a computer.... may have no problems incorporating them into their lives. Enjoyed the conversation. Must get ready to go back to work... tomorrow.
