This is totally inaccurate.
Only earth ponies should be on the bottom, what are pegasi doing there? And what is an earth pony doing near the top? |

Scootaloo, if you want to discover your cutie mark, get off the ground and take that bucket off of your head. |

discovering one's cutie mark allows one to contribute to the aims of the glorious ponies' revolution. Doing less is counterrevolutionary and a threat to the worker's paradise |

Yeah, this picture is pretty much Tsarist Russia to a tee.
You can argue about how applicable this model is to your own society but they were raising ill-equipped conscript legions to fight the 1st world war, the rich were eating well during famine, the Tsar ruled by divine right and the priesthood's main job was keeping the public docile by persuading them it was all God's will. Although Equestria has a meta-society defined by friendship that supercedes the bounds of its' strictly formal social structure, sort of a virtue-ethics theory of society, so it's not really comparable. |

^ for the 19th century, yes. currently no. we've also definitely proven that pure communism cannot thrive,
there is always 1 person who is going to want to lead the rest. The communist gov'ts that manage to survive are lead by fuck heads who want to kill whoever they can. |

dear god, i love how butthurt all the conservative newfags are about this. it's almost as good as the picture itself.
Also love how newfag_fan is just begging for someone to slap his shit. tip, newfag? a smart person chooses one of the two: posting in politiponies images or registering an account. |

Yeah Equestria seems more Socilist (with God like Princesses... so I guess a Socilist Princapality?) |

^ I doubt it. The "hooves on" approach to governance that Celestia seems to take suggests its an absolute monarchy, albeit a benevolent one.
I can just see ponykind try to establish a constitution Celestia: Limit my power? I raise the goddamn sun! Luna? Have at these ingrates all you want, revenge to your heart's content! |

You cretino, capitalism isn't 'government', and besides, Nazi Germany WAS capitalist. Next. |

^ no it wasn't. It was a largely controlled economy. Production levels were, for the most part, dictated by the government, not market demand |

^ yes. but both communist and fascist regimes have planned economic systems, not a market-based economy like a capitalist system. I wanted to restrict the point to economics, and not touch on the government structure as a whole. |

In equestria you don't need money to have a high position. All you need is good old trolling power. Just ask Cheerilee. |

@59673: Benevolent tyranny is the best form of government there is. The trouble is finding a benevolent individual to be your tyrant. A human being would never measure up to Princess Celestia. (Because she's fictional. She can be as perfect as a writer wants her to be.) |

@Anonymous#44412: Uh, thats not entirely true for Fascism. Both Mussolini's Italy and Nazi Germany had very significant private sectors. In fact, German Industrialists were big time backers in Hitler's rise to power precisely because they saw him as friendly to their own interests. Where the fascist nations did break with capitalism is that corporations were still subordinate to the State instead of independent of it. The market was permitted to dictate production UNLESS that conflicted with the interests of the national government, at which point the government triumphs. Every last economic detail is controlled by the state and the communist party (the latter via the former).
Also: capitalism is not a governmental system like fascism and communism are. It is completely an economic in nature and largely is not supposed to concern itself with politics. Capitalism can theoretically do just as well inside a dictatorship as within a democracy.,.. |

>Only earth ponies should be on the bottom, what >are pegasi doing there? If you want to get anal, the pegasi have been consistently shown to be the most proletarian of them all. Whereas some earth ponies have been shown to own their own businesses, every pegasi shown has either been a soldier, or an industrial worker managing the weather. |
