"Nothing included
When people ask, "What are you supposed to be?"
just reply, "I was supposed to be a lot of things."

It's good to see that people are up voting this. All this talk of hidden societies pulling the strings is completely asinine. Most humans aren't smart enough to pull off an illuminati heist. And the few that could will never have the resources to do so. It's way more simple than all that. Deep down we are just run by our core animal instincts. So you can breathe easy knowing the world domination isn't currently happening. Just a bunch of stupid monkeys playing with fire while the house around them burns down.
Exactly. The rich monkeys are joined in common purpose, but not out of some grand coordinated conspiracy. Their wealth class values and interests simply align.
George Carlin said it best on an episode of politically incorrect once:
"You don't need a formal conspiracy when interests converge. These people went to the same universities, they're on the same boards of directors, they're in the same country clubs. They have like interests, they don't need to call a meeting. They know what's good for them."

Carlin always know how to say it best
For better or worse, George made me the man I am today.
