    No political system is perfect. Ever.

    They require constant vigilance. They require battling. Human greed is capable of corrupting every system that a human mind can create.

    Anyone that tells you they have a perfect political system that would never need fixing is a liar, an idiot, or both.

      “Revolution only ever results in a change of masters”

      “One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes the revolution in order to establish the dictatorship.”

      Ok, why not create a human system that’s not succeptible to greed by introducing usufruct property relations?
