But the business aren't going to pay up the military in the long term-they can't afford to be overtaken on the inside cause ultimately the government is less expense.
Who would jail the _military_????
The government.
They control the judiciary.
A foregin military?
If the military is the problem just tell the people they want to enslave them.
No the people themselves.
If your military is killing your politicians-the people YOU voted in power would you organize into a national guard units and just seize the HQ?
Well, thats either _good luck being invaded_ or _good luck citizens_
Ultimately if the military does that it would be game of cat and mouse cause the longer they hold the government into an arrest, the more the people will consider them occupationists and the more the hatred of the population against them will rise.
Depending on the strenght of the military
Not its strength, but rather THE SUPPORT they have amongst the people.
Cause, you know what, people's feeling aren't constant.
They can be all over the military one day and throwing stones at it the other.
It's a common thing.
One day the greet you with flowers, the other-with stones.
Idk, you tell me what the people will do...
Will they do what you tell them to?
Im just exploring the fragility of your state
So if the fascist guy wants a stable control over the country he must either start killing more and more people, or secure the trust of the people, and the second one is pretty hard.
What I mean is that the moment the military guy takes over he would be forced with many situations he couldn't predict and he is not trained to.
if he just starts using random violence against everyone the people will start hating him and they would love the judiciary to put a case on him.

And this time around the corporate shrewd can use his resources to support another commander who will be more suitable for him.
I mean in a society build like that a stupid military brote will be nothing but a tool in the hands of the corporate elite.
remember something else-for a corporation it is CHEAPER to buy off the police, than to pay a full blown military.
A military consumes more resources than a police by the definition of it.
What is more expensive-guns and prisons or tanks, bases and boot camps?
If you are a corporate executive @Fuksias what would you choose?
I told you-there is NO WAY these three can come together to construct their "perfect' dictatorship, cause then, it would actually be good for the people if they achieve a state of balance among themselves.
It's a game where no one can win by themselves, but when they are in equilibrium it's best for everyone.
Can you get my idea?
Megalomainacs are over represented in the elite... Just because it wont work long term doesnt mean one wont try
Yes, he will.
And he will get killed by others like him.
That's the point of the system-always pit a megaloman against someone else like him. Works best for everyone.
The thing is that the system is so forth build that they can get but can not HOLD power for long, cause the moment they make a fatal mistake someone can take their heads off, too.
So they must either be suicidal, or, think twice before trying anything stupid.
Natural selection will do its thing over the generations in such kind of a system.
Instability is bad for the wealth of a nation
That's why democratic countries are superior on average, because they're more stable
The more people have to worry about survival, the less they are willing to invest
