If people were 100% rational, would the world be better?

There is a special place in my tiny, tiny heart for the minority report.  People who, for example, will say fuck you got mine to strangers.  Even more-so with people who think god did this or that, gave them this or that.  That's the height of hubris and servility alike.  Wholly aside from arguing the truth of the beliefs, and accepting that people act on their beliefs rightly or wrongly - I can see how difficult and uncomfortable it may be in a social environment to advance some hated or denigrated point of view.  The world is pretty mean to assholes - but assholes may have it right.
Yes, the assholes are right. Most people will never accept that basic truth. And then they complain, about all kinds of fucking bullshit problems, when the solution is very simple - let the assholes take charge. I guarantee you one thing, we would make damn sure society is improved to a more fitting status for humanity's vast potential. I have some really great ideas, for how I would change society.
