> People need to feel that what they create can't be stolen.

To create a society based on protection of property, the government must be mean to outsiders so it doesn't have to be to the insiders. When the government of a country with 4% of the world's population but 25% of the world's wealth enforces citizenship and residency rights (a form of property), then that's considered mean by the outsiders.
