Niccolo Machiavelli was, at his time, the forerunner of social engineering. The sophomoric state of the people of the era possibly needed its shepherd but in these modern times? A MAN LIKE MACHIAVELLI SHOULD BE STRUNG UP BY HIS OWN ENTRAILS! The free-flow of information is what is needed for today and machiavellianist principles would promote a suppression of that ideal. In short, Machiavelli was a scoundrel of the worst sort.

I think if anybody that gets a bad name because they wrote thier believes about how goverment should be thats wrong. We should still have freedom of speech to say what we want to who ever. Nicolo was a very good man i know that he didnt deserve the bad names and he didn't deserve being kicked out of Italy!
