I ultimately think for any government to work, people must undergo a shift in thinking. A shift from egoic thinking to one of conscious thinking. Until that happens, I guess our best bet is to minimize the power of government. If/when that happens, Communism will be the government of choice (let the flames begin). Fortunately, I think I can feel the tide turning.

Good, benign government and economic
can occur in any almost any form if "good" people are running it. I believe, however, that republican (small r) democracy (small d) with a properly regulated free enterpise economy is the most conducive to allowing such people to govern. Ultimately, government is based on the people that encompass it. It is merely our corporate tool to protect and serve, how we the people choose to govern and share/use our individual/corporate resources is ultimately a human choice.
