The Rich Make The Rules

Throughout human history, we perceived the authorities body i.e. government, the kings, the queens make the rule. Society had very little or nothing to control over the rules made upon them. The Ancient china civilization, Egypt Civilization and Medieval European empire had depicted the scenario. The people are living under merciful of their kings or queens. The kings and queens had since be able to rules his or her countries in the favor of his or her own.

On 1215, a historical moment took place. The signed of Magna Carta under King John - England. The incident was a revolted against the kings by the barons (The Riches During the time). The riches gathered and compel the Kings to signed the agreement for the power of kings now is shared with the riches in democratic manner. The riches now be able to vote on the decision made for the nations. The rule since then, are made by the riches.

The origin of democracy was from Greek Civilization. It was a notion that developed for people, by people and to people. It was a revolutionary ideal for many who eager of freedom. People love it, and endorsed it, but the truth is, it was never been implemented as it was intended. It sadly become a tools for the barons and riches to manipulate. It become corrupted and nothing more than a ponzi scheme of free will. Tony Benn, a former british politician once said, people are easy to be controlled in 2 ways, when they are fears and poor. The most difficult way to control people is when people are rich and educated. Until then, a truth democracy can never be formed. As the world is 90 percent of poor with 10 percent extreme riches, the riches can simply pay the "price" to the poor for the "votes" in favor of them. Why the riches are getting richer, and the poor stay poor? It is a random event? The riches understand the real golden rules. "he who made the rules keep the gold."
