RE: Dissident thinking - InformationWar - Philosofy is Politic.
I would like to echo The Federalist #51
If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.
It's a never-ending struggle to find balance.
It's an interesting quote. I allow myself to give my opinion on it, without detracting from it or believing myself to be the owner of the truth.
I believe that the problem is the individual, today most of the population lives without knowing our course or goals as a society, we live in war and the only scientific research in which it is invested is the one that potentially generates the most destructive weapons.
We simply run after individual enrichment as a solution to all our problems. Because that's how we were educated. Education and the production of healthy people is the best way to make the state disappear, it will only disappear when it becomes obsolete and not when people want it to disappear. The problem is (I think) that it doesn't matter what political system is implemented instead of state protectionism. Several systems have already been tried throughout history. If the system is perfect, but its members are corrupt, they will corrupt the system no matter how good it is. Concentrate on the debate and the creation of a society with plans to grow together.
