Speaking of autocrats

Thinking of how Kim Jong-il, who obviously has a very high opinion of himself, is brutally raping the people he forcibly rules, I was reminded of a proclamation by Howard Dean recently:

"We know that no one person can succeed unless everybody else succeeds."

Since this is observably not true, we must assume that he simply wishes it to be true, and that, like Karl Marx, he would be in favor of a government that would see to it (by whatever means necessary) that it becomes true.

In Howard Dean's ideal world, therefore, no one would be allowed to succeed unless the government decided it was ok and how, for God's sake, would they determine that and enforce that?

If I were you, I'd think real hard before electing anyone to public office that Howard Dean endorses.
