 in fact whenever a government is overthrown the new one is usually worse.

just look at Ukraine ( where i am from ) as an example.  every time they have a regime change it just keeps getting worse and worse.

governments keep getting more tyrannical because rising productivity means more is available for stealing.  

eventually when productivity becomes infinite so will the tyranny. 
 finite resources versus infinite productivity is an equation that must be balanced.

with infinite tyranny.
