And there's another one!
It is strange to many these days, that such an outlook is seen as uninformed or those who hold an independent
perception -and I mean that in the terms Ninurta's indicating, fail to grasp the importance of having leaders.
The slow-drip of brainwashing has placed many of today's public into a position where they cannot understand
that they -themselves, are actually 'the leaders'.
For old time sake, I looked up the word 'Independence' on the internet and I was surprised that there are two
entries by Wikipedia. The first and obvious one briefly describes 'self-government' and then moves off into
convincing the reader that basically, Governments in today's sense is taken as the norm.
The second one I liked better. With a sub-heading 'Probability theory', it explained something called 'the Stochastic
process', Where after using big scientific/mathematical words, it indicated that by adhering to such a theory, a person
can come to the conclusion that random acts effect our everyday lives.
(Big-brain stuff?!!)
I think this character in the 1987 movie 'RoboCop' says it better.
