Ah, yes, how does one "educate" the rich, the greedy, and the powerful? Ask the founders of the French Revolution, the American Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the Cuban Revolution, the Mexican Revolution, and numerous other such revolutions...and they will tell you.

Unfortunately, however, the idealistic notions that spawn such revolutions usually give way in fairly short order to the establishment of a new and powerful elite...who once again end up exploiting most of the common people for their own gain.

When Emiliano Zapata went in triumph to Mexico City and tried to run the government there in such a way as to redress grievances with the ordinary people of Mexico, he found his purposes confounded by the corrupted bureaucracy around him at every turn. He eventually gave up in disgust and walked away from the job, returning to his own peasant people in Morelos. Sometime later he was assassinated by government soldiers. They couldn't stand to let a leader that honest keep on living...
