Still eh? What happens when that belief has waned? The infrastructure will still be there.

Hard to predict but usually (lost) belief transforms to feelings/actions like resistance. And probably on that point there will be also others who will do the same.

How would you resist, when your energy, travel, money, internet, etc, is micromanaged by your government?

[dementik]

The same way I am resisting (in-efficiently) things now in democracy: by voting and trying to raise my concerns on public forums.

Yes, government could do things which prevent me doing so. Still, I am not capable to manage everything by myself and at the same time I think it is better to let things to be managed by (good) government than corporations.
