One good way to have perfect stability, is that everyone become a willing slave of the government.
There are two extremes of action (both which *I don't* support):
- everyone become a willing mindless slave of the leader: perfect stability
- everyone take up arms and do terrorism: perfect instability
But between those two extremes, what is the right measure? I think that saying nothing is too close to stability.
