Look at China now. Free enterprise style of economy but a totalitarian form of government.
I'm really scared for this country. Erosion of the middle class, clampdown of our constituional rights. I'm afraid we're heading for a two class system. Filthy rich business owners and semi rich technicians and the working poor. If you keep Playstations affordable the lower class won't rebel (modern day Version of the Roman Coloseum games) And if you do get uppity enough and ***** about "your place" in society, it's off to prison for you!
DYSLEXICS OF AMERICA UNTIE!

As I said, "Give the population just enough to keep them from revolting."
A good analgy, though...the games in the collosium.
