I don't know much about this kind of stuff but I feel like the people are as much to blame as a system. It won't be until our culture is actually focused around education/science more than entertainment/profit that we can expect to see major changes. It's not that we aren't doing great things everyday or a leading force in technology. It's the fact that these great things are not the driving force behind our culture. We are gluttonous consumers and a resource monster who's primary function is keeping itself fed (via technological advances). Scientists have to battle against large corporations to make positive changes because it will affect their bank accounts. That just doesn't make sense to me, I understand why it happens, but it still leaves me dumbfounded.

The greatest thing about Democracy is that it gives everyone an opportunity to create and improve. The problem is: how do we handle all the creativity, filter the good from the bad, and put it to use to benefit society as a whole?
