You need a constituency that remains relatively poor, who believes that the key to their prosperity lay outside of personal agency. You also need a smug constituency that believes they have helped others by convincing them they are incapable without them, and their generosity with others resources.

The inevitable outcome of reliance on benevolent geniuses is always disfunction.
