@udon @ryo @digdeeper The problem is that people don't understand what the problem is. The problem isn't with government specifically, or with companies. The problem is with too much power (and that includes wealth) in too few hands. That is the problem that creates a need for government in the first place, but that need isn't being fulfilled because people let government stray from its only acceptable function. It doesn't matter who has too much power, if anyone does, it will be abused, so no one should have it. Government should only exist for the purpose of preventing that. America was kind of an attempt of doing that, but the government eventually got taken over by the capitalists and the result is what you see now.

Of course, it's also worth mentioning that when you merge government and corporate power, you have fascism, which is socialism. Fucking Mussolini himself said that fascism is the one true form of socialism. So, it's all the same shit, these ideologies are not really different from each other. And the only thing that people should want is avoiding every single one of them. Breaking all of their toys. Creating a system that prevents those other systems. I think the main thing to address in a new system would be corruption. Politicians should be the population's slaves. They should not allow to profit from anything ever, they should be forced to give away all of their property and live in fucking monasteries, like monks, and all of their actions should be severely restricted to a few very specific purposes.
