What's the democratic control of existing resources? I would make the opposite assumption, it would be captured by the wealthiest interests.

		This is literally the current system... adding more democratic controls is a good thing, the alternative is that only rich control these systems and would you look at it only the rich control these systems. Uncanny really.
