They Rule

A few companies control much of the economy and oligopolies exert control in nearly every sector of the economy. The people who head up these companies swap on and off the boards from one company to another, and in and out of government committees and positions. These people run the most powerful institutions on the planet, and we have almost no say in who they are. This is not a conspiracy, they are proud to rule, yet these connections of power are not always visible to the public eye.
As one friend put it, "It's like Wikipedia had a baby with the 6 Degrees of Kevin Bacon Game." It's no exaggeration when they say "it's not what you know, it's who you know."
