Answer 1

Plato believed that most people were pretty stupid and therefore should not be allowed to vote. He believed that instead the best people should be chosen to the guardian of the rest. Plato is regarded as the best philosopher of all time.

I think the answer you're looking for is that he thought "individuals should live in a just and rational state."
