"Until philosophers rule as kings or those who are now called kings and leading men genuinely and adequately philosophize, that is, until political power and philosophy entirely coincide, while the many natures who at present pursue either one exclusively are forcibly prevented from doing so, cities will have no rest from evils,... nor, I think, will the human race." Socrates describes these "philosopher kings" as "those who love the sight of truth" and supports the idea with the analogy of a captain and his ship or a doctor and his medicine. According to him, sailing and health are not things that everyone is qualified to practice by nature. A large part of the Republic then addresses how the educational system should be set up to produce these philosopher kings. Very similar to the venture capitals today - There are two sides, one that seeks the truth, the other, glory. However, true knowledge comes to those that have a purpose for it. Learning the divine laws, vs local laws, that are always changing. However, Time doesn't wait for no one. Hence the connection to the Spirit is the key to learning anything that is permanent. Every thing else that we face every day, is temporary. However, relationships, with truth and love are eternal. In addition, the ideal city is used as an image to illuminate the state of one's soul, or the will, reason, and desires combined in the human body. Socrates is attempting to make an image of a rightly ordered human, and then later goes on to describe the different kinds of humans that can be observed, from tyrants to lovers of money in various kinds of cities. For example, San Francisco, where many of the pioneering happens for space technology and brain interface with zero point energy. The ideal human being epitome, and there is yoga and tao to support, the advanced level of understanding, with fasting and meditation. As a visionary, tyranny is mentioned, which is very common in venture capitalism today.
