Should we be at war with the aristocracy? If the aristocracy were killed and it was believed to be in the common good and afterwards was proven to be so, would it be OK? The fact that hereditary titles exist means that some countries have something very wrong with them.
It would increase social mobility.
Reduce class discrimination.
Free wealth.
Close the gap between rich and poor.

That natural "pyramid" will always exist and the best of the best will be on top. That's not the case today as the pyramid has been artificially inflated by people who clamored to power on the backs of others, by lying, cheating, etc.

That's exactly what I was saying in the portion of my post you quoted. That the hierarchy has been "sullied" by folks who got there by ill means.
But killing them certainly won't solve the problem and put the proper people in their place. A shift needs to occur in how we look at human beings and business. We need to look at it from a " what helps us all" standpoint, instead of what helps our bottom line.
But really the crux of the issue is the profit motive and the ability to use humans as an asset. As well as corporate influence in public politics and although I think that successfull business and industry pioneers should have a voice in influencing policy, but not the way it's done now.
