The devil is in the details. 

Fuller also saw the dangers of government/corporate alliances against the best interests of the People - he predicted the AIG sub-prime mortgage catastrophe three decades before it happened. 

Fuller's work informed SF writer William Gibson (Neuromancer, etc.) who believes that Humanity has already created a competitive life-form; multi-national corporations. Gibson postulates that they perform all of the functions of living things; consume, move, reproduce, defend themselves from entropy, respire, excrete, etc. Even though they function with human constituents, corporations in and of themselves only concern themselves with money - and the activities required to maintain homeostasis/dominance their domain (i.e., amoral self-obsession). 

Fuller said that the fatal flaw with (Marxist) socialism is that it uses the same economic system as capitalism instead of a real-wealth based system, which requires a hyper-efficient meritocratic framework (similar to a well-run military organization), which socialism inherently makes impossible.
