Who rules the world???

I think thats the lie of meritocracy, everyone thinks, ohh i can do anything, in reality those with the huge power have been chosen, media has made them or religion has made them. I think if any one or pare of counrtys will rule the world it will be Germany and France through the E.U, they have far too much power in it for the good of Europe.

right, kinda delrail here, but say the illuminati is real (or orther type of secret society) how the hell do they get new members, obviously people will leave, and die, but how do they hire people, not like they can put a wanted thing in the local job centre

they supposedly headhunt famous smart atheists...
