"Equality, like liberty, is difficult to reconcile with scientific technique since this involves a great apparatus of experts and officials inspiring and controlling vast organizations. Democratic forms may be preserved in politics, but they will not have as much reality as in a community of small peasant proprietors. Officials unavoidably have power. And where many vital questions are so technical that the ordinary man cannot hope to understand them, experts must inevitably acquire a considerable measure of control." - Bertrand Russell, 1931 (p224) The Scientific Outlook. Written large, for the short sighted. |

That's a red flag if ever I saw one! |
