    I like the analogy.

    That also makes the state a prime target for capture, for many different reasons but unfortunately often with the same result (a nation full of wage slaves who don’t control the means of production, and a few who wield the power).

    Even when socialists are in power, there are no guarantees… but the stated intent is there, which is a very good start and can serve as a stablising force. Ultimately, it is the actions of a government and its leaders that will be judged, and often in hindsight.
