      What is "natural" about letting billionaires run everything? That's exactly why the era of monarchies came to an end, because that system doesn't work.

        Absolutist monarchies can only exist because of feudal aristocratic kings, who then get entrenched and become the status quo. That's how it's worked for centuries
