Weekly Standard on Episode II

[Kevin Robert Dean]

"Make no mistake, as emperor, Palpatine is a
dictator--but a relatively benign one, like Pinochet.
It's a dictatorship people can do business with. They
collect taxes and patrol the skies. They try to stop
organized crime (in the form of the smuggling rings
run by the Hutts). The Empire has virtually no effect
on the daily life of the average, law-abiding citizen.
