The Meritocracy Trap
By Daniel Markovits
Can be a good book. In fact, I've bought a digital copy.
However, no matter how the fault lines of society fall, the job to do is to deliver Utopia!

The book is interesting also in light of the promise of future Utopia and it's nice to read how the book compares with the work toward Utopia!

The Meritocracy Trap
Post #1I'm cool!
- Stronger Religion every day! Also by "mathematical Religion", the eternal forms, God closing the door on corrupt humanity, possibly!

It's funny how the book has been called "The Meritocracy Trap"! Aren't people supposed to govern because they have the merit to do so?
Would it be appropriate to put in evil people instead so to prevent the legal persecution of evil people?
Though some of the problems presented inside are valid or questionable, it must be nonetheless understood that Meritocracy means stronger Democracy in a troubled world!
Thus, contrary to the book perhaps, HURRAY for Meritocracy by Democracy!
