Everybody need to specialize or find themselves a niche within the economy and get good at what they do so they don't get out-competed. ... The issue of "governing" should take care of itself much like every other profession take care to solve other people's problem instead of expecting entire people to be wise in governing. ... Forget the concept of citizenship duty and rework the system according to the real strength and limitation of the people.
I think this is an incredibly dangerous attitude. Society works when human beings recognize what they have in common; a society in which all social and political organization is based on specialization and individual differences is a society in which people are divided and susceptible to tyranny. I will gladly trade some economic productivity for a citizenship which recognizes its common interests, actively pursues them, and knows how to defend its members against exploitation.
