According to Chamath Palihapitiya, a former Facebook exec, there are 150 people that run the world. In this video published last year,
Palihapitiya states:
There are about 150 people that run the world. Anyone who wants to go into politics — they’re all fucking puppets.
There are 150, and they’re all men, that rule the world. Period. Full stop. They control most of the important assets. They control the money flows.
And these are not the tech entrepreneurs — they are going to get rolled over in the next 5-10 years; by the people that are underneath pulling the strings.
I thought this was interesting considering that recent Facebook news, and the fact that Mark Zuckerberg is currently under attack.
