The stability of any society is jeopardized by inept leaders who fail to properly maneuver the ship of state. If Aristotle knew this, why didn't you? There's no magic bullet in the form of a political-economic system; Aristotle's reach is much broader than your conception of the "broad middle class".

Socialism has greater potential to create a large, value-based middle-class.
