Every Government deserves a successful economy; every economy deserves a Democratic Government.

Every Democratic Government deserves a 'successful economy'; every 'economy' deserves a Democratic Government. Every Government, regardless the type of government, must have a means of existence, and that means, some 'economic system' by which it furnishes or supplies, the 'means of subsistence' to its People. Obviously, a Government, or the Top, governs the 'Many' People, situated at the Bottom of the structure of the Government. The Bottom is always the 'population', in its totality. The Bottom is also the 'governed' and hence, subject to the 'exercises of power' by the Top. A Government needs an economy to survive; but, an economy also needs a Government to monitor the 'progress' of the economy. The two systems work in tandem. Nevertheless, the Freedom and Equality of each Individual at the Bottom, is the 'motor' of a Democracy; while the 'profits motive' is the 'motor' of the economy. The two motors must be kept separate. If we mingle one with the other, we may still get a 'well functioning economy', but we will lose the Democratic spirit, or stated differently, the 'motor' that drives our Democracy. Freedom and Equality has no chance of surviving in a Government driven by the 'Profits' motor. Why not? because, the 'profits' motor is 'completely unrelated', to Freedom and Equality of each Individual. Economic competition is dead. Competition between real Individuals may have, once, been a 'good motor', but today, there is no way a real Individual can 'compete', in the business world, with the 'surreal', Legal Fiction, created by Government. Obviously, a balance between the two systems must be struck. But, the 'initiation' of the 'balance' cannot be from the economy, because that would destroy Democracy. It must arise from a Governmental control of the economy. Stated differently, Government needs 'more control' over the surreal, 'legal Fictions', it has created.
