Ignorance is not some genetic trait treated with medication but a temporary condition that can be solved with education.

• The guys fixing the roads need to be paid a fair wage to afford rent, food, and amenities.
• The nurses at the hospital need to be paid a fair wage to afford rent, food, and amenities.
• The librarians need to be paid a fair wage to afford rent, food, and amenities.
• The postal workers all need to be paid a fair wage to afford rent, food, and amenities.
• The office workers slaving away at a desk to manage all the government's resources and finances need to be paid a fair wage to afford rent, food, and amenities.
