        And who will make sure they don’t abuse their power? Its basic human nature to be greedy. Who chooses the government? People voting?

          Well at the moment that’s what we accept and then they set the rules for industry, hardly much added danger in letting them be the industry? More direct rule for the people.

            I’m sorry but i really don’t understand who is “we” and “they”

            How is the government formed? Who makes sure the competent people stay in power and don’t abuse their position? Can anyone become the part of the government?

            Its sad but its true. Not everyone is bad but a lot of people are, if you don’t believe that you are very sheltered.

              People aren’t born bad. They’re made that way and they need help.

              Capitalism has trained you to see your neighbor as your enemy. It’s a tragedy!

                Odd when I apply this theory to people like say Jeff Bazos it kinda comes off funny.

                Oh those poor evil billionaires are just needing help, will someone not think of the tragic local monopoly man?

                  He does need help!

                  He needs reeducation and rehabilitation, preferably in a facility where he can learn to be human again.
