Regulating the power of the few i believe is something that would be impossible as these few are the ones putting people in power. Because you can’t get there without having these people support. In Africa today there are many insiders who run all the governments and have them all in their purse.

Money is a factor and it’s why they are being careful to pay anyone too much so he won’t become like them and have to question them later in the future.

This can also relates to Hive. Where many are sanctioned but few are pardoned. However with Hive the code itself is decentralized so there’s a chance to have more people strengthen themselves and be able to say no to any opposing force.
