The idea of a centralized authority. Look at this from the other
direction:

"Statism does have a certain appeal. The idea that we could select some 
people to form what they call a 'government' and make decisions for the 
rest of us is appealing because, if nothing else, it would mean we 
wouldn't have to spend so much time in boring meetings.  But of course 
it could never work for one simple reason: human nature. Most people are
hardly good enough to manage their own lives - how on earth could you 
find a group of people who were so good they could manage everyone
else's?"
