The "good" news is that gravity hates the Tower of Babel that every society inevitably produces.

  The "bad" news is that this kind of gravity tends to get called things like "The Reign of Terror".

    No, no: the jackwagons atop the Tower engage in the reign of terror. The gravity at work here is economics, as seen through the lens of people. People, it turns out, don't flourish in captivity.

      People don't flourish when most of their productive output is sucked up by some neo-feudal lord, either. For some reason, capital is currently consolidating at the top.

        And those at the top pander to the bottom for power with public money. Disadvantage: the kulaks.

  No. Gravity and a flat surface doesn't exist in money-power. It is buoyancy. It lifts few people up very high as they push down more that go down under the waves.
