Thank you, Hasanabibi-Swan.
Please understand, democracy is still in the making.
In order for a democracy to work, enough people need to get on a basic level of education, which schools have been succesfully striving and working towards.
The oligarchy stays wealthy and in power by certain means.
People like Zuckerberg and Chan, the Google sisters, Eric Schmidt, Gates, Altman and his crew believe they and their likes should be the new oligarchy because they are younger, smarter, know PHP and HTML and can write scripts in Python. And they are perfectly aware of the fact that all their money on Wall Street will keep the prevailing Power Structures in place.
There never was a New World Order. There never will be.
Democracy and the sharade of jawboning and similar practices are nothing but talking points of people who like to feel superior.
Communism and socialism didn't get to evolve. Capitalism got to rot away. They experiment on and study societies, communities, individuals for soon to be a century and the only thing that keeps whole nations below potential is oligarchies. But that's incredibly important because a) you need to keep as many psychopaths in check as you can and let them run wild from to time to time in a controlled manner and b) because most people, despite higher education, can not think. They believe in what they hear on the news, they believe journalists, they believe politicians, despite proof of the opposite, which is why schools and unis strive so damn succesfully to get as many people on their level as possible. Soviet schools did the same. So did the socialists in Germany.
There's enough to do for everybody and enough resources and ways to get them.
The only thing leadership (and the the top few %) CAN do better, is to finally pay out the working class the dividents they have earned, which they will use to improve everything.
The reason they won't do that is that they reeducated the people using marketing and hollywood to the point where there is no credible evidence that the people will improve anything at all but instead just consume more, without increasing productivity and constructivity. And there is no need for that at all because the people are happy enough with their amounts of consumption as they are.
Those who can and will improve any environmemt can find ways to get what they need and want to increase their productive and constructive contributions. Except for the exceptions, of course, those who need the right tools before they can get shit done properly, but expansion of surveillance in combo with AI is a talent scouting tool already in the making, isn't it?
