Is that true if the vast majority of people are either uninformed or apathetic?

Magical boxes aside, people understand and pay attention to things that are of direct personal interest to them. Transit schedules, prices of things in their area and so on. Which garbage bins to check if you’re really poor, how to avoid taxes if you’re really rich.
So, I guess it wouldn’t be, but people actually aren’t stupid or apathetic (about their own life) in general.
