Running Interference

Society is built on the concept of middlemen. The people at the privileged end of any spectrum (religious, wealth, power, prestige, celebrity, military, political, etc.) all hire people for the task of dealing with those at the opposite end. Separation supports society’s structure with middlemen convinced their role is also privileged. “The people” don’t have any influence because of the middlemen hired as interference block the attempt. All social structures are the byproduct of the sad human trait of consolidation of power in a few, supported by a few more hired to keep the masses away from them.
