Given the oil industry is not competent to run any government?

Should the UK, as a trial, have a revolution?Given the oil industry is not competent to run any government?
Cannot follow that logicGiven the oil industry is not competent to run any government?
No.





No revolution in the history of the world has ever turned out the way the instigators of the revolution intended.





You would be unleashing horrifically destructive forces that would put the country back decades.





How can you dismiss a revolution as a mere 'trial'? As if we could go 'whoops, on second thought, let's revert back to how it was before'? Do you have any idea what a revolution entails? It's bloodshed, uprooting, mass murder of people who disagree, state paranoia, police government, counter-revolution. Please, please please, don't use that word so lightly.





The most successful states don't have a revolution unless the only alternative is the same mass murder by the existing regime. No matter how much we criticise the present government, there is no way you can accuse it of that. It's pure hyperbole. We need responsible government, not revolutionary government.





Try reading some Edmund Burke.
Your premise that the oil industry equates as an organisation to that of a national and civil government is a bit wonky but the question about revolution as a solution is as old as civilisation.





No revolution can ever succeed in making social organisation more fair and equitable because of the seduction of political power. Once a system is transformed from one type to another, either by swings to the left or right of an ideology, it requires not only firm and competent helmsman to keep it progressively moving toward visualised social goals but a robust security apparatus to protect its power base from being subverted or harmed by 'counter-revolutionaries' that seek to take over the new administration at the earliest opportunity in order to purify it from old thoughts and ideas. As the power base extends both laterally across every economic strata of society and vertically through industrial and military and educational institutions, those occupying seats of power at every level and sector within the 'new' order find themselves seduced by the enormous privileges and advantages their position brings. Before long the old corrupt regime of sycophants and nepotism has been replaced by a new one; the rhetoric and the name has changed but the same archaic class system of economic and political and social segregation carries on as before.





The UK needs a revolution in education that stops churning out people with materialistic expectations of creating their identity out of exploiting others.
