Kings aren’t dead.  Far from it.  They are alive and well in the corporate world.  They have their own kingdom, their own rules, and their own slaves.  They rake in the loot generated off the backs of the drones, who make a teeny tiny fraction of the rewards.  They are not a family or a team, they are an organization of people, structured in a hierarchy, just like a kingdom.  Those towards the top get more and have special rules.  Those at the bottom settle for shit, and are usually treated like shit as well.  This is not a complaint.  It’s the truth.
