The knowledge of the individual citizen is of less value than the knowledge of science. The former is the opinion of individuals. It is merely subjective and is excluded from policies. The latter is objective - defined by science and promulgated by expert spokesmen. This objective knowledge is viewed as a commodity which can be refined... and fed into a process, now called decision-making.

Each of us, whether government leader or protester, business executive or worker, professor or student, share a common guilt.

School is the advertising agency which makes you believe that you need the society as it is.
