Hmmm... "Best" informed seems to be a mess in the making. Best at consuming Cable News productions? Best at status quo narratives? How many of those have been shown to be really wrong not too long after they were put out there? That is a big list! Setting that mess aside, is this not just a clever way of saying some people are too stupid to vote? Often, votes are not about what to do. It would be most helpful if they were! Instead, we most often vote on WHO decides what to do, not HOW or WHAT should be done. People, even poorly informed ones, know what their experiences are, and the things to improve, priorities and all that come though just fine. We really should be talking about how to get the people who decide what to do to be better informed about the people they are supposed to be making those decisions about. Right now, both major parties in the US oppose other parties. It is hard to blame them, but this does leave us all with poor choices and leadership track records largely reflect that reality. Not sure we can put these problems on the voters. Given better options, I am confident the people would vote them into power.
