The Parasites.

Government is a parasitic organism.

All governments are made up of people whose food, shelter and clothing are dependent on the productive workers of society. Chiefs of tribes, presidents of the United States, and old-time brutal conquerors, all, feed off the honest labors of their subjects. Their tendency to build empires may be driven by the inflated egos of its leaders, but territorial expansion becomes a necessity over time.

The parasites of government eventually run out of hosts. They run out of supplies when the victims of their plundering die out, give up working or give up on life itself.

This takes time. It took the most parasitic form of government--Russian communism--about 75 years to collapse into social and economic chaos. But, of course, like maggots on a corpse, Russian government will rise again.

The parasitic personalities of government don't really care about this inevitable collapse because, in the meantime,  it provides them and their families with a fine living, and it will be many years before everything turns to shit.

And, their subjects will love life enough to keep on working, even though they know that their work is supporting despicable parasites.

Take heart, though, a lot of people are fighting against this parasitic organism.
