Can Turks be Trusted with their own Future?

I think Turks can be trusted with their own future because things changed until 1923. People started to think before they act and they were free to do lots of things.

In past people used to do what they are told and nobody could say something about it. Now people have rights and they can criticize almost everything. I said almost because some are forbidden. For example with the new law even high ranked military officers can not talk about military acts happening now or happened in past. Now lets turn our attention to the ruling elite. As we talked in class ruling elite says that they are Ataturk's heirs but their decisions doesn't support Ataturk's ideas. They say they support democracy but they don't give the right to vote to people. They say it's because Turkish people are not yet educated to make critical decisions.With that mind Turkey wouldn't go far but thank god it didn't happen.

In my opinion our directors are not good enough to direct a country but what can we do about it.
