Social democracy cannot be replicated in countries like USA or Eastern Europe. It has had been abused in Eastern Europe to maintain communism 2.0.

Because of mentality and being very prone to the too much free power makes one too cocky. We can actually see how it works when corporations get lazy and mismanage very hard.

Mentality can be changed for good (the past few years show how it can be changed for evil).

If it can't, then it's a missed opportunity of planetary proportions.

You are highlighting a problem of too much centralization, not a problem of economic left or right. Centralization has this problem independent of whether it manifests in government or corporations.
