Please, stop what you are doing....NOW...and pick up a copy of Plato's “Republic”.
Better yet, visit youtube and search for ‘Commanding Heights’.
I’ve read The Republic and I find it to be a long essay in support of what amounts to today’s therapeutic government. I do not support Plato in that at all (I am quite a fan of some of his dialogues, however).
I fail to see how reading The Republic would correct BillyBoy.
