Echos, Thanks for the response. But i 'm still not convienced that We need degrees before democracy. We are illiterate but we are not dumb. we have made many big decisions in the history. My only concern- i wish we could have made informed decision. You took my "influencial voice" in a wrong sense. That voice is not mine nor is yours, who have the innate instinct of ruling and dominating people. The voice is the one that gives the different perspectives and a complete picture. Even a partial picture from different sources would be a better influential voice. I feel independent media can be the best candidate for the voice and without democracy, how could that be possible. What high school education does? Even the policy is flaw less, this education just casts the mind either in your mould or mine which always wants to ignore the complete picture. So information, "Influential Voice" is what we need. We are able to see the things if we have access to do so. Without democracy, we are blocking the views. With the High school Education in such scenario, we are just creating a bunch of loyal, obedient and little more skilled servant for future. And finally, No republic, just freedom is what we tried after 1990 and you see where we are now. Let's try a new thing. what do we have to lose more?
