Well-said.
People are so divided and the more complex our world becomes the more split they become.
These divisions are exploited by the rich and powerful to make certain, there is no recognizable "will of the people". Thus democracy deteriorates and we are burdened with rule by the rich and powerful.
  The one "will of the people" is almost always the desire for change (more money), but the first thing the rich and powerful always want is no change. Thus we are burdened with plutocracy, rule by multinational corporations.
  Politicians are always promising change but never delivering change, except less money for those who already have less money.
