What would not constitute capture by these criteria for some group or other? Capture is therefore a meaningless way of saying that 'they' have it and 'we' haven't. But the essence of the purportedly democratic structure here is that this kind of alternance between 'we' and 'they' take place. Therefore capture within some democratic structure might well be advisable, even laudable. Bob, one could imagine a scenario where the 'creeps' are encouraged by the 'people' to come forward and part with some of their 'cash' which can then be 'spent' by the people. As such it might be interesting for the 'people' to encourage 'capture', in the sense that the wodges of 'cash' would not otherwise be forthcoming. In the same way as Scotsmen used to assault policemen on cold nights to get a night in the cells and avoid death by hypothermia, in fact. Worried in Europe.
