Ruling Elites page
"A tiny portion of the
population controls the lion's share of the wealth and most of
the command positions of state, manufacturing, banking, investment,
publishing, higher education, philanthropy, and media... these
individuals exercise a preponderant influence over what is passed
off as public information and democratic discourse.
The ruling class is the politically
active component of the owning class, the top captains of finance
and policy who set the standards for investment and concentration
of capital at home and abroad... Their overall economic domination
and their campaign contributions, media monopoly, high-paid lobbyists,
and public relations experts regularly predetermine who will be
treated as major political candidates and which policy parameters
will prevail... Though relatively few in number they get the most
of what there is to get. Their wealth serves their power, and
their power serves their wealth."
