Every society is founded on some ultimate principle. It might be the
absolutism of a single ruler, the majority-rule concept of a pure
democracy where the “voice of the people is considered to be the voice
of God” (vox populi, vox dei), or an oligarchy where a
self-appointed group of experts claim sovereignty and control. A system
of values (laws) flows from this fundamental operating principle even
among regimes as diverse as Nazism, Communism, Fascism, and Socialism.
Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez make the claim that their socialistic
system of rule is the best form government. Adolf Hitler made the same
argument for his brand of National Socialism as did Lenin and Stalin
for Communism. No government ever argues that its system is evil and
bad for the people.
