Ignorance is bliss, but I would rather be miserable and know what the fuck was going on.
For an answer to this question (in one form) read 1984, and consider the proles. They are oppressed by the government to some point, but as long as the gov't doesnt touch the booze, porn or hookers, they don't care what happens. They don't know any differant, and they are uneduacated, so why would they risk their life as they know it?
I swear, it really does relate!
