Individuals involved in bourgeois relations see the state as a means to achieve certain ends that the state itself imposes on them, such as the need for private property to satisfy their needs. Meanwhile, its true purpose, to safeguard the conditions for the continued accumulation of capital, remains unchallenged. The state, in reality, is the association of the bourgeoisie against the other classes. The outcry against the corruption of corporate lobbies reveals only a complete ignorance of the class nature of the state. The state is based on maintaining the capitalist economy for its own power and uses democracy as a means to achieve this end. When democracy fails to produce the required docility, however rare, naked force can always be resorted to.
