What, in your opinion, should the perfect Government be like? How would it be run? What would its policies be? |

A "pure" human being is impossible though. No-one is perfect, and everyone is good and bad to varying degrees. I don't think anyone is pure "good" or pure "bad" - everyone, you'll see, acts differently from situation to situation, and with different degrees of pressure, desperation and mental instability your actions will vary. A perfectly "good person" who seems perfect does terrible things. So I say no-one is entirely good or entirely bad, and for what you've suggested you need an entirely good person. |

The perfect government is where I am supreme leader. |

Of course it`s impossible, which is why a perfect government is impossible (along with nearly everything attached to the word "perfect"), it`s just a thought experiment... |

Socialism. |

Well, that's basically saying that as this is hypothetical, you were just pointing out one way to govern and so normality doesn't apply. Because it's a thought experiment. I can see the point, I can see how hypothetically you could have a perfect king. |

Exactly. That sort of discussion would be way more fun because it would have a lot more depth to it, and be really interesting. |

Why would one eventually corrupt? |

Wrong. Two quotes: "You have heard that Power Corrupts, and Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely. In fact, it is Power that draws the Corrupt, and Absolute Power draws the Absolutely Corrupt." |
