The view of government, initiated in writing, very rarely examines any current government of the world. Writers often feel that the current governments are rather susceptible to trends that could deny their writing in the status quo. An author writing about history is much safer than attempting to tackle the present. History offers a realm to hypothesize about new ideas, but the present allows the only true test of whether an idea or theory is practical and substantial.

Few authors have the privilege of seeing their work translated into a form of government. If this does occur it is usually a number of years after their death.

"The place of manufacture was taken by the giant, Modern Industry, the place of the industrial middle class, by industrial millionaires, the leaders of whole industrial armies, the modern bourgeoisie. Modern industry has established the world market, for which the discovery of America paved the way. This market has given an immense development to commerce, to navigation, to communication by land. This development has, in its turn, reacted on the extension of industry; and in proportion as industry, commerce, navigation, railways extended, in the same proportion the bourgeoisie developed, increased its capital, and pushed into the background every class handed down from the Middle Ages.

The government is now so immense that the general will is impossible to contrive into law. The constituents are not able to have their voices heard. The government is now no longer listening to the general will of the public, which in turn decreases it legitimacy.

Marx would also continually repeat of a bourgeois control of production. The bourgeoisie are firmly in control of production. As an example, Bill Gates is so in control of the computer industry that he must attempt to prove that he does not have a monopoly. It is nearly impossible for any infant business to be able to compete within the already established market. Marx would say that our industries are too entrenched in their market share for any new companies to compete. The proletariat has no chance of competing with the bourgeoisie in the United States.
