You know the guy in the army that runs the squad?
Well he's the leader of the squad.
There's also the general who controls the squad leader.
But then there's the president who is in charge of the generals.
But then there's the coorperations in charge of the president.
The elite are the ones who control the cooperations.
Not always CEO, those are probably front dogs too.

Why do people fear the "Elite"? Who exactly are the "Elite"? I definitely would like to be one of the "Elite"........ Where do I sign up???
I see too many threads with the mention of the Elite doing this and that. What is so wrong about wanting to be elite.
A couple definitions I find on it are:
n., pl., elite, or e·lites.
1.
a.A group or class of persons or a member of such a group or class, enjoying superior intellectual, social, or economic status: "In addition to notions of social equality there was much emphasis on the role of elites and of heroes within them" (Times Literary Supplement).
b.The best or most skilled members of a group: the football team's elite.
2.A size of type on a typewriter, equal to 12 characters per linear inch.
Just a question
