Taxocracy envelops all countries, regardless of their myths, through rule by impersonal officials, hierarchically arranged, which, whether governmental or corporate, is a response to insecurity, external threats, collective envy, restricting each person's values, preventing his release of directed
energies and inventions.

substitute processes and formations.
