The biggest problem is money in politics. Money means rich people get their way.
They want people just smart enough to press buttons on the rich person's factory floor but stupid enough to vote how rich person's news channel tells them to vote.
There are probably enough people that aren't so stupid that you could educate them enough to vote in their interests if you can get to them against all odds. You just have to get through the social media algorithms and mass media blockade that are completely against change that would hurt their owners profit.
