Can Turks be trusted with their own future?

I think Turkish people cannot be trusted with their own future in some ways, but after maturity and education improved in country they absolutely could do. Despite the fact of high improvement in a lot of ways in Turkey after Ataturk founded the republic, nowadays the democratic and economic system seems unstable because they become to be controlled by ruling elite’s remote controller. The thing there is how mature Turkish citizens are to be able to trusted with their own future because of the chaotic impression in country. Because Turkey is a culturally mixed country, there are always problems with democracy. If full democracy is able to be applicated, everything will turn upside down because people understand that they can do everything within a democracy. But actually they can't. In Turkey, the people we mark as "ruling elite" are the politicians I think, and they need a different power sayng what to do like army. I think the reason why Turkish Army is very included in Turkish politics is "ruling elite" s wrong decisions. Therefore, I think that Turkish people will be trusted for their own future definitely when they are educated and mature enough.
