You think the string-pullers would be honest about their goals? It's all about control, making sure the haves keep.

As great a philosophical mainstay as Hanlon's razor is, I find it pretty difficult to believe a system of laws that almost exclusively favour the wealthy, especially when it's people in positions of wealth that write said laws, is some happy accident.
