It is one big mafia cabal of infiltrators that there only goal is to enrich their extended families. and of their members. The priest at G Bush's funeral said it out plain and straight to the audience and was trying to tell that; it is about the family and friends. Go back and listen.
Why? Because he know Bush was guilty and was executed and he knew that many of the audience were compromised too. In other words, what's the harm? Is it a crime to provide for your family so that they can live a good life? This is why they are entrenched in all forms of authority and powers, because they work together like bees or ants protecting the hive.
