The truth is, the people in charge are a tiny minority, they rely on a number of factors such as people's innate individuality, weakness for money, lobbying, pressure etc There are people who have reached such a level of wealth that no material possession matters and they wish to remake world, this is unfathomable to alot of people because they're stuck in the daily grind, but that's where they want you, just be good little cattle and keep consuming, keep your blinkers on, keep viewing things through a materialist lens.
See, that's where these discussions fall down, when people post opinions and guesswork as facts and the truth. As if you're revealing some previously unknown conspiracy to the gullible riff raff.
I'd guess that you're no different to the 'good little cattle' you obviously look down on ...
... doing the same things, consuming and thinking about money.
