THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
A patriarchy running on patriarchal moral values would reward politicians acting on patriarchal moral principles the most basic of which is Truth, Logic and Morality.
The West is now a matriarchy, which explains why the government and the governed routinely reject Truth, Logic and Morality on the ground that it is offensive to their beliefs that are not based on Truth, Logic and Morality.
