A Kingdom Welcome

Imagine a world where the rich have all the power. Where status and wealth means you get special preferential treatment.  Imagine a world where the rich and the powerful exploit those who have less, and order society so that they get richer and keep others down.

Of course, it is not hard to imagine because we live in such a world. I guess every age, society, country, kingdom has, to a greater or lesser degree, succumbed to this. The wealthy and powerful keeping the status quo.  With our own leaders, there are stories of contracts given to friends and old school mates, peerages seemingly gifted to those who can financially support, cash for questions.

We live in a world where the rich and famous jump to the front of the queue, get the best invites, get things for free, even though they could afford it.

A society where the divide between rich and poor seems to grow, despite government priorities and manifestos.
