Terri:	(looking at the picture) Aren't cover ups inevitable?
Ted:	Perhaps. Few humans are willing to show their weakesses. Are cover ups any surprise?
Terri:	Hmm. Without transparency how can there be democracy?
Ted:	Don't be naive – democracy only works if participants have approximately equal power and also adequately informed. Those conditions rarely, if ever, exist. Most people prefer to be entertained, not educated.
