To do that you have to have a free market, a market which is controlled, is not by definition free.
Aristocracy = meritocracy, they both have the same meaning.
Markets which do not allow free access, but are controlled by guilds.
Small middle-class businesses, being closed in favour of the centralist corporations of the richest, because of government taxation systems.
Systems of which it is acknowledged that they can no longer deliver.
Capitalism would be a good idea,
we are still living in feudal societies.
