It is this short-term approach that leads us to celebrate each overthrow of a dictator, rather than think about how to educate people to demand good government. We are drawn to heartwarming stories of an understanding teacher who sees a student’s potential and helps her get into university, or a frequent diner who funds a kitchen worker’s dream to start his own restaurant.
这一短视观点导致我们为每一位独裁者的倒台而欢呼，而不去思考如何教育人们要求更好的政府。我们为看到学生潜力、磅她进入大学的教师而感到温暖，因为频繁前来用餐只为支持厨房工人开餐馆之梦的食客而感到温暖。
