A Handful of People Run Everything

From stand-up comedian Bill Hicks:

It’s just a handful of people that run everything, and that’s provable. I have this feeling that whoever’s elected president . . . no matter what promises you make on the campaign trail – blah, blah, blah – when you win, you go into this smoky room with the twelve industrialist, capitalist scumfucks that got you in there, and this little screen comes down... and it’s a shot of the Kennedy assassination from an angle you’ve never seen before, which looks suspiciously off the grassy knoll... and then the screen comes up, the lights come on, and they say to the new President, “Any questions?”
