I don’t believe there is any form of human government that can claim immunity to our collective human weaknesses.
The current one in the US has been predictably captured by greed, end of story. The ridiculous distinction between “right/left” and ongoing claims of “democratic process” are beyond irrelevant advertisements at this point.
The USA is plainly in a terminal debt spiral now, where the productive members of society are increasingly being squeezed to support a growing proportion of government dependents. There is no exit from this, as history has shown over and over again, that does not involve absolutely staggering amounts of human suffering.
I have tried hard to imagine a scenario where humanity does not end in tragedy.
As living creatures though, this is just our fate. All species exist for a time, come to outgrow their resources due to some evolutionary advantage, and then either die off completely or evolve into something else. That we celebrate such a cruel and random system has always confused me. I suppose we have no other choice.
