I would say uninformed, however its due to the politicians in power, the media etc. the entire system is defunct.
Ex. most people think that politics have 2 sides - a left or a right
They are not even aware that there are 3:
totalitarian (socialists)
authoritarian (conservatives)
libertarian (libertarian)
Since libertarian are the only ones fighting for real personal freedom, small goverment, and low taxes, then the "system" have more or less erased them from peoples mind - like it was 1984. Ex. How many times have people seen the "political triangle":
I´m guessing ZERO - unless they have some keen intrest in politics
So people are left with totalitarian (socialists) and authoritarian (conservatives) powers - its like choosing between two slow and painfull deaths.
