What if I told you we could vote ourselves into socialism?
Every system has to be enforced at some level. Even if it's just the mobs. Having an unenforced system that doesn't fall to bad faith actors will take a complete change of human psychology.
What if I told you every time that happens the bourgeoisie takes control of the military and starts a civil war to maintain their power?
I'm not sure that holds without the CIA coming in to facilitate that in a relatively new democracy. If a large country with good institutions voted that way it would be a lot harder to pull off a military coup.
