All Around the Mulberry Bush

We are seeing nervous oligarchs lately. President Biden has provided relief on student debt. And the conservatives are freaking out. The agreements that hold modern society together are largely coerced or forced. But as ever, there are more of the exploited that of the exploiters. The numbers are necessarily very lopsided. Only a few can dine on caviar, but many must eat plain bread.

But the arrangement never lasts long before the poor once again eat the rich. The inequality of Empire leaves it imbalanced. Empire is top heavy- because the rich are very fat on the suffering of the poor. And inevitably the rich tip and the poor devour them. And then new oligarchs rise to the top.
