   Your naivete is UNBELIEVABLE. "Getting away" with whatever it is   
   to get power, or maintain power, or subjugate people to create   
   power has been a recurring theme throughout a lot of human history.   
   I'm talking about *thousands* of years.   
      
   So your concerns are essentially ridiculous because human nature   
   hasn't changed and isn't going to change.
