Uneducated hicks, or whatever you want to call the downtrodden, have always been a problem for democratic political sanity. An independent, educated public service able to fearlessly criticise governments is one solution. In the US so many rabid, right wing lunatics have been handed power within that branch of Gov’t it’s amazing the US media haven't drawn attention to the obscene contradiction of a supposedly free enterprise ideology allowing any such imbalance of power.
As if often the case today, Ayn Rand is rolling in her grave.
