Perhaps. But I think there are other criteria that need to be met to qualify as a good government. For example if any government facilitated an economy of consumerism and infinite growth capitalism, but also forbid itself from doing anything meaningful to impede the resulting collapse, then I wouldn’t call that good. And I suspect that these bullet points would not prevent consumerism from developing in a democracy that is otherwise similar to the ones that many of us live in.
