I also adress this in my book. It sure wasnt perfect, but it still was better than what everybody else was doing. It is so difficult to make the world a little better, i think those people who achieved it should be given credit. Also, Solon, one of the grandfathers of Athenian democracy, did release the poor from debt slavery. Also, poor people were definetly allowed to vote and speak in the councils. I think it was Cleisthenes who broke down the Aristocratic tribal powers of Athens. That is an incredible feat.
