You are making a 2500 year-old argument against democracy. Democracy serves the interests of the needy. That's the whole catch with the democracy. If you don't want democracy, your options are monarchy, aristocracy, oligarchy or tyranny. There are two sides to every coin. |

Just because someone 2500 years ago said something that could be framed as something sort of similar does not make his argument false. Besides, ancient societies did a lot of social controll too.
