Yes, but Aristotle (the Philosopher) said that slaves and artisans were not part of the commons of the polis, so Thomas's exaggeration if his ideal of perfection was restricted to a wealthy ruling class. You've got to find someone who understood the common good. I'm not even comfortable with Rousseau on this score.
