Apart from democratic ideas there is a real distribution of power on the planet.
While in past times, the high nobility and the church formed the very top; has clearly established in today’s time the high finance at the top.
Identify the natural persons in this power tip turns out to be difficult. While there are individuals and families in this tip, but this disguise their pecuniary circumstances. Above all, there are institutional mights that act today. The exploration of the property situation of these institutes is only possible to a limited range. Level only to the extent, as far as the actual power owner regard this as appropriate.
Under this top is the power structure of the global mass media. These are of course in the main in the possession of high finance.
The belief system of the masses to control ensures the long term power. Alone by
the medium of television the majority of the population can be steered today. High finance has arbitrarily high amounts of money and its disposal to buy control of the worldwide television channels. Alternatively provides continuous control of the dependence of advertising revenue.
The politics and the politicians need the mass media to be perceived. Only with a certain fame a politician can hope for the sufficient votes for the desired position. He is fully dependent on the power of the media.
