> We should instead restrict the franchise by exam to provably non-ignorant, non-evil critical thinkers so that we get representatives who are non-sociopaths that we can respect.

Also the exam part brings to mind the Chinese imperial exams for civil service.

I don't know whether that's good or bad, it didn't work out well for them.
