If the system remains truly democratic...

I wish I could get rich...to go on vacations...yeah...but also to see if I could truly maintain a virtuous stand while affected...you think you will...but you don't KNOW....

Localized doesn't have to mean absent a universal. The options don't have to be atomized vs. identity group. What you are before you choose is determined and universal. Simple and not inherently violent or nonviolent.

"It is as to whether its services or uses are to be exchanged or not which makes a tool an article of capital or merely an article of wealth. Thus, the lathe of a manufacturer used in making things which are to be exchanged is capital, while the lathe kept by a gentleman for his own amusement is not."
