Quoteit's about the power that comes from being so rich that you can buy control over the direction of society.

Yes money replaced the sword. The violence of lead and iron is replaced by the violence of silver and gold. Silver and gold taken from the surplus value of the labor of other men.

And like fish who are fine, oblivious to the water around them, people are oblivious to the power they have. People possess the power, but they are fine with giving it up. Injustice is more comfortable than the unknown.

So the beat goes on.

As an example:

Power from being so rich that you can buy control over the direction of society. 500,000 pro-growth, limited government Americans is the claim. Reality is billionaires pay for it. One of them and there are more than one is #25 in the world. They give ~~bribes~~ awards to politicians. And if you want to donate to the billionaires they will gladly take your money. They have a link to that.

How sad it is, the parable of the tribes.

The bottom line is two possible outcomes:

(1) Mutual annihilation.

(2) Or an end to the struggle for power, a just world order guided by reason and values.
