<p>Majority rule- against:
-Nazi Germany (wow, this was a popular one)
-Some statistics today about how uninformed the American public is</p>
<p>Just out of curiosity, did anyone here actually say the majority was a good guide?</p>
<p>Majority rule (against): those poor sixteenth century scientists; women's suffrage movement; The Fountainhead. It was fun to write. I wish she'd given us a '30 second' warning though, at the very least.</p>
<p>I do recall somebody arguing for it, using the US government as a guide. I say the world will function best if I had absolute control over it.</p>
<p>Majority Rule (Against as well...): </p>
<p>I used slavery, new science (the atom... genetics...), and (when all else fails) personal experience.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>What exactly was the question on majority rule?</p>
<p>Something like "Is the opinion of the majority a poor guide?"</p>
<p>Thanks for your advice stambliark41, it was reassuring!</p>
