 It is important to keep up utopia. I just recently heard a great talk of a european politician. There he asks the crowd:
Who buys a ticket to enter the train?
Who would still buy the ticket if you are sure today there is no one controling anyone for tickets with a 100% certainty?

This second train is a democracy without transparency. Maby there would still be narcist in the politics when there is transparency. But at least the voters have the full data for what they are voting for.
