Democratic values apply to 'real' people; economic values apply to 'economic institutions'.

Democratic values apply to 'real people', i.e., to autonomous individuals. Each Individual is autonomous and is as 'free' and 'equal', as another. Each Individual, is as 'Equal' and 'Free', to express the principle of 'life', within her/himself. Democratic 'organization' or 'structure' going from the Top to the Bottom, stops with its 'confrontation' with the 'real individual' at the Bottom of Government. Why? Because Government is necessary to the 'condition of togetherness' but it only organizes or structures a form of government that allows for the 'fullness of Life' to be expressed within an Individual. It does not tell the Individual how to express life, it only helps the 'condition of togetherness' by structuring a 'democratic manner' of interactions within the social and within its social institutions. Each 'Life' is responsible, for 'each expression' of Life. No government can be more important than the 'life' it protects and enables to live 'democratically' in a 'condition of togetherness'. Governments are 'late' to the Game of Life. Life was here first, then 'family' organizations; then tribal organizations; then larger units of 'togetherness' which were eventually called 'Colonies', and later 'States', and which admittedly, were considered Legal Fictions. 'States', or, 'political entities', are Fictions. But, at no time, in the evolution of Individuals and Families, and Tribes, and into other 'conditions of togetherness', is there a 'transition', or 'transmutation', or even, a 'transfusion' of the 'life principle' from a 'real human being' to the Governmental Institution. Governments are, at best, fictions. The economy functions differently. The economy functions by competition. Without competition, we would not have a successful Capitalistic economy. But, the goal of the economy is purely to have more and more. Obviously, we could not have competition for 'life' between Individuals. Individuals should not have to compete with each other for their 'freedom and equality'; why should they?, they already have it; and Government must 'protect' and 'preserve' it; and the economy should 'stay out of it'.
