I mean its all right like...after the 5th chapter the book goes on to quoting big investor's words and explain them. You can easily skip this book just by watching his interviews.

1. Slavery is OK.

2. Better and realistic than The Republic. 

3. Neglegence towards womans (kinds sexist), slaves and non-citizen.

4. Having a bit of both Democrecy and Oligarcy could leads to a potential Dictatorship.

5. Good monarcy better than democracy. Against Vote and Election.
