In the hands of the public?

The more you know... the less the world knows.
As you become smart you see the world become stupid.
I don't trust the public to do anything...
but die like they believe they will.
I can't wait to get off this rock before some idiot kills us all.
That way they keep their freedom,
but I'm not dying in the process of granting it.
People have helped me so little in my life
I'm curious as to why I'm even writing this.
oh yea, now I remember.

Without extropians the world's only chance of survival is luck. :-)
