American government uses democracy. Democracy is concerned with what
the majority of people think, not what experts want people to think.

If the majority of people think the world is flat, then votes related
to that issue will reflect what the majority believe. Further, the
purpose of politicians is to represent the masses, not to go in their
own direction with their own ideas and solutions. You are advocating
pure irresponsibility and anti-democratic elitism.

The people aren't interested in your opinions, as they are able to form
their own opinions just find from the television, newspaper, and internet
that constitute modern culture.

If you scientists are trying to have your ideas made more important
than the opinion of the masses, you are fighting democracy and thus
are anti-American. You should be exiled in Guantanamo Bay.
