Nicely done. Thanks. A lot of people would probably have a hard time swallowing the "divine right" argument of Bezos, Gates or Musk is because we live in a nominal Democracy where, we learn in elementary school, everyone is created equally. So there's quite a big swath of cognitive dissonance to fight through before one can accept the more realistic portrait you painted in the article. Basically, we're in a de jure Democracy that's a de facto Plutocracy/Oligarchy. I gotta admit though, using a sacred/magic lens to view and frame a lot of what's going on right now within the elite and the regular folks like me is pretty awesome.
