Everyone is well aware of the "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer" euphemism, and it has a long history. How could it be so easy to accomplish such theft and become such a long lived paradigm? Because there so few rich relative to the world's population.
In order for those with little power over the political activity of one's nation to affect change in their favor, many, many, people need to be organized. Those with power need only schedule a meeting, hop a plane, and agree to fix the entire system so it works in their, and only their favor. Consolidation of power is as simple as a handshake in a closed door meeting in perhaps an obscure chateau on the estate of some shadowy, unethical, morally bankrupt robber baron.
These people bye politicians, use fraud and theft on a monumental scale, and are ruthless in their, to this point, successful efforts to rob the treasury's of nations around the globe. They make sure this is accepted by the people of these nations by the skillful use of propaganda and fear. "If you don't bail out the 'too big to fail' institutions the economy will collapse", "If we don't spend trillions on wars in the Middle East terrorists soon will be knocking on our doors, "If we are not allowed to tap the phones of countless innocent citizens soon our religion or faith will come under attack." And the fear mongering continues on and on.
These groups will succeed only up to a point. Just ask Tsar Nicholas II or King Louie the 16th and his Queen, Marie Antoinette.
Let us hear what you think? Come on, speak up!
