The wife and I are reading this new book the daughter recommended, “Red Rising”. There is a reference to the president as a tyrant of neccesity. It reminded me of Herodutus’ discussion of the Persian general’s debate over the best form of government. It occurred to me the generals missed one. A form where the “little people” think they live in a free republic but the folks actually running the show know better. Like we have now. Until the sheep look up it works.
