Bernays's vision was of a utopian society in which individuals' dangerous libidinal energies, the psychic and emotional energy associated with instinctual biological drive that Bernays viewed as inherently dangerous given his observation of societies like the Germans under Hitler, could be harnessed and channeled by a corporate elite for economic benefit. Through the use of mass production, big business could fulfill constant craving of the inherently irrational and desire-driven masses,^{[clarification needed What mass irrationality?][citation needed]} simultaneously securing the niche of a mass production economy (even in peacetime), as well as sating the dangerous animal urges^{[clarification needed What dangerous urges?]} that threatened to tear society apart^{[citation needed]} if left unquelled.^{[citation needed]}

Fourteen years later he burned to death in a fiery automobile crash.[14]
