    This is why class consciousness is so important. 95% of people have the same working class best interest if only they knew it, and they all need just slightly adjusted methods to achieve this depending on where they’re from. The imperative is there if and only if class consciousness exists.

    This is likely why (even though the USSR was far from perfect) the majority of people who lived under it TO THIS DAY regret its collapse. Now the capitalist powers that be, which have come about as a result of denationalization, corrupt their democracies and corrode working class powers in an attempt to stop the actual will of the people

      So your argument is that the most important thing to prevent corruption of a democratic state is education and solidarity. I like that.

      I'd also add that a classical liberal view to this problem would likely be that a solitary leader or oligarchy is much more corruptible than an electorate, so the point is moot: a ruling class would be more likely to be imposing immoral laws than vetoing them in the first place.
