    All of human societal structure has ultimately boiled down to might makes right.

    All of it.

    In our modern civilization we have inserted enough extra steps in between to delude most people into believing that this is no longer the case. But still it is. I have said this nearly verbatim on here before:

    Who are the cops? Just guys with guns.

    Who are judges? Just guys with access to cops.

    Who are politicians? Just guys with access to cops and judges.

    Who are the megacorporations? Just guys with access to politicians.

    Etc.
