Exactly. The words used to describe the model are just that. Words. The ruling class is always shitty people who have their heads in the clouds. They cannot fathom the struggles of the working class and have no idea how to actually make things better. It doesn’t matter how you structure the government when our rulers are always human-shaped embodiments of shit.

I understand why my post above gets so many downvotes. It’s natural for people to want to believe they have an answer that works. That what they believe in is correct and everyone else is wrong. I’m telling you that everyone is wrong, and we don’t have a model that works. Nobody wants to hear that, but it’s the answer I’ve arrived to after thinking about politics and economics for decades. It’s also why the people are so susceptible to demagogues. A man with a plan will come along, tell everyone what they want to hear, and lead society towards its next mass atrocity. It’s going to happen again. It will happen here in the USA. You can bet on it.
