No. Elites are the .01 percent of the population by income and assets.

Their wealth has been expanding throughout the 21st century despite the world's economic contraction. They have none of the concerns that you have mentioned.

Their sole concern is to protect their wealth and its continued capital accumulation.

The bickering masses are just dogs (no offense) nipping at each other under the table over scraps of food.

The table needs to be overturned. Ankles need to be bitten.

Dogs need to be educated.
