So then you would agree that the humans that would be charged with running, tweaking, optimizing and enforcing an authoritarian state also need to be in fear of the consequences of messing about and abusing the power they're given, yes?
What is your opinion on capitalism, by the way? This view of human nature would imply that if the heads of corporate entities are left with nothing to fear, they will exploit to their hearts content. Do they, then, also require systems of control for optimum social operation?
