It's also very interesting how often governments with socialist ideals and good intentions have become dictatorships.

We are living in a dictatorship now, no foreshadowing required.

That is very true. I have little faith in those with rigid socialist ideals as they tend to want to tell everyone else what to think. They are convinced of their 'superior' views and become very dictorial to others. It is their way or the highway kind of mentality.

When those with such ideals acquire any power the results are usually very predictable.
