Everything in this post is, sadly, true. The real tragedy is this arrangement is evident in almost all human endevour - every activity undertaken by groups (cities, nations, societies) of people seems to tend towards larger and larger groups and more and more control over their activities by "leaders". These "leaders" are usually a pretty good reflection of the group; what most people want is to be left alone and essentially irresponsible. This system is the modern golden calf.
