16. Such education goes against the security of the inheritor-class.
They won't allow such reasonable thinking without a fight.

Let's face it. They weren't the bright ones who created the family wealth, the only way they can continue in their god-given wealth is to stop anyone who might threaten it.

They must take all patents to themselves.
They must control as much information as they can.
They must squash small businesses before they become big.
They must buy out all small businesses that do manage to get big.

Whew. That's a hard days work.

Buffy! Buffy! Where's the butler? Oh, rats. Why is dad's grave constantly churning like that. Oh, well.
