Check out the Egyptian monstrosity, all pointy at the top with the suckers 
at the bottom.

I don't see it that way. I think it reflects reality. The people at the bottom
aren't "suckers", they really don't know how to get higher.

If I can be a bit picky, I think it would be even better if there were some
strivers on the intermediate levels. People not wondering how to get to the top,
but are working at it.

Best,

Nat

I was commenting on the pyramid scheme that was being advertised. 

But as for broader social commentary, the people in the middle can be 
scary because they have a portion, and in desperately holding onto that 
they support the oppression of the bottom, and the excesses of the top.
