Benefits
Polybius believed all democracies fail.
"The masses continue with an appetite for benefits and the habit of receiving them by way of a rule of force and violence. The people, having grown accustomed to feed at the expense of others and to depend for their livelihood on the property of others... institute the rule of violence;[1] and now uniting their forces massacre, banish, and plunder,[2] until they degenerate again into perfect savages and find once more a master and monarch."
“The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” Lucius Mestrius Plutarchus or Plutarch
