A meritocracy based on virtue assumes there are actually any virtuous people around. Take a look around you and decide whether those even exist.

@AravisX I am assuming you live somewhere in the West? I say that because I lived there and the culture saying I have no value definitely resonates. I moved to Asia and the environment was better. One caveat though. You have to bring your Western income with you. There are ways to do that, but it's not a no brainer. I wish you all the best. Hang in there.

@chickenfishhybrid44 There are some around here too. I moved out of the city a few years back to a rural area. Much better here.

@AravisX Don't lose heart. It took me 63 years. I'll bet you can do it a lot faster than I did 😉

@jefferyindorf699 I totally agree. I think most virtuous people would be repulsed a the thought of going into politics. That field attracts the power hungry and a large percentage of psychopaths and other malignant personality disorders. My personal opinion is that the primary requirement for holding office should be not to want to hold office ... but how would you check for that?

Platitudes are what work in influencing a big chunk of the American electorate. Facts seem to make their brains hurt and critical thinking is not an option.
