must be part of an association of people called party.
Such association or party takes the form of a group of

people who have their own common interest. Typically, the
president of the party that wins the elections becomes the

leader of the state.

The party wins the elections governs and runs the country.

Following the principle of action and reaction, this system

has advantages and disadvantages. The members of the
party that runs the country are privileged and well provided

for. Party members are mostly members of small
subgroups within the party and fight for votes in the next

elections.

This system has led to the creation of a new class, the so

called party class, which is essentially unproductive and
parasitic. Party class can not exist without money, so while

in office it imposes itself on the economic life.

Governmental structure aside, the essence of the states
today is basically the same. Parties create or attract highly

profitable companies (casinos, oil companies,
monopolistic companies supervised by the state, etc.)

These companies are most often formed by party
members or supporters loyal to the party.
