Very nicely said!
As has been observed, a proven way to quell opposition is by infiltration and subversion. Even by natural laws, all are subject to eventual corruption and decay. Even with the best designed system/game, there always may be room for the roots of tyranny to grasp. Didn't most of our political and economic models start out as the intentions of creative good-will?
Somehow, more individuals must achieve a certain level of awareness and understanding,... not in line with the intellectual elite of technocratic models,... but along the lines of self-empowerment,... self accountability and responsibility,... introspection and mindfulness,... all based upon an understanding of the larger inter-connected reality that humans are dependent upon and share with the rest of existence. I see a successful model based upon compassion, understanding, and peace.
