Quote:Well, FS is all that some of these people know. And remember, he's put his own spin on history so as to paint himself as the good guy. That's affecting their minds, too.That's the job of Rousseau's legislator. FS is keeping out impurity from the collective consciousness of the Pacific.
The important thing to remember about Rousseau's 'Social Contract' is that to most political theorists, such a system of government would have to lead to some kind of totalitarian dictatorship, which is just what we are seeing in the Pacific at the moment.
