An amusing article, but of course the real problem is that ordinary people - irredeemably ignorant, gullible, and foolish - are permitted to vote on matters about which they know literally nothing at all. This is a recipe for disaster and it's why we have Modi, Duterte, Orban, Bolsonaro, Johnson, Erdogan, Putin, PiS, and the highly influential AfD, Le Pen, Trump, Salvini, et al. doing such wonderful things for their respective nations. If only the problem was as simple as a bacon sandwich!
