1. The world is run by only a few people. Policy is decided by a handful of the earth.
2. Capitalism is the worlds functioning economic system. But, is it the market which grants these people the power? Is it the system itself which fires back and requires certain aspects of itself to be main-stayed not by the best competitive advantage, but by the most secure source? Looking at oil, it seems to be the latter. Looking at politics, it appears to be the latter. Things of necessity...are they actually determined by capitalistic trends or merely by that handful at the top, attempting to define capitalism?
