It appears that all politicians and especially dictators like the deposed one in Egypt have some kid of a personality disorder. They all claim, some more vocal than others, that people are not capable of this that or the other. The deposed Egyptian dictator and current Egyptian Police and Military claim the Egyptians can't rule themselves democratically.
Here is a revelation for you, in my opinion, people are born free and democratic as evidenced by the Libyans, Egyptians, Tunisians that are still struggling for freedom. It is the dictators that have this weird dependency on power and the need to stay in it. The struggle is not for the welfare of the people rather the welfare of the ruling elite.
Egypt is fighting Police and Military dependency on being elites, rulers and masters of Egypt. This creates a pharaoh syndrome and then it is a struggle to ween them off this dependency. To have them finally acknowledge the fact that they live among equals does take effort and sometimes blood. It is evident in Tunisia, Libya as well with the extreme case being Libya.
It is also unfortunate that the western hemisphere is not immune to the pharaoh syndrome. Washington, for example, is doing its level best to make us believe that we really need them yet they are squandering our money, mortgaging our great grand children's future and costing us jobs and our quality of living is suffering. To remove a corrupt politician take effort and a lot of work to organize and campaign against them in an election but still could be done. People must take charge of their destiny and vote for what they believe in if you don't go to the polls then you end up with people like Blago in IL.
