And responsibility won't be their concern. Only to enough of a level to maintain peace, perhaps. But also to keep the power away from the citizens.
you can say the same for Capitalism. in the US and other democratic republics, only the elite really control the people. They do this though economic manipulation and owning the means of production.
the problem with capitalism is that it is an illusion
The american people do not revolt because they falsely believe they have control over their environments. The (shrinking) middle class believe in what we call the "american dream" and because they own some car dealership they are in control of their destiny. But they are not in control of anything. AS long as there is a paper money system and 90% of the money is owned by less than 1% of the population, the poor will always stay poor, and the Bourgeois will be the ones who keep the proles in their places by giving them dreams of being able to own a house or a restaurant. It's an illusion.
Capitalism is shit.
But Communism is no better. No political system ever controlled by humans will ever work. And Anarchism (practice, not spirit) did not work either, if you remember the events surrounding the Spanish civil war.
So, no, nothing will work.
we are all fucked
and china will be the new usa, but dont worry guys, most of us will be dead by then
