Bingo. Those in power by definition can change the system, but they don't. Which probably means it's working pretty well for that cohort.
But one thing you are missing is that those in power are just like us. Deeply flawed people and what they build is flawed for their purposes too.
Global warming is a great example. They have absolutely no solution to it and it will decimate not just them, but everyone.
