Power Imbalance + No Consequences Creates Abuse

...ultimately, the way to prevent the powerful elite from abusing people is to not have a powerful elite at all.

Epstein – and allegedly Maxwell – could do what they did, and get away with it for so long, because they had wealth and knew people. They chose teens who were financially desperate.

Eliminating the existence of financial despair and extreme wealth concentration is thus an important part of making sure there are no more Epsteins and Maxwells.

It would be a mistake, then, to see (Ghislaine) Maxwell as nothing more than some uniquely disturbed person. She was nourished by a culture where there is no incentive not to do whatever the hell you want, regardless of its effects on the vulnerable. We should be careful to remember that putting Ghislaine Maxwell in prison will not change that culture.

Maxwell, Epstein, power and money: it's time to do away with the super elite

This sad, sorry criminal case is in part what happens when a small class of people is allowed to behave however it likes

One word, money !

Epstein did the typical thing of masquerading wealth and the obtained it by devious means.

His island served the two purposes, one for gratifying his own wishes and two to provide the gratifying of others wishes which he could then use in order to manipulate them with the knowledge of it. Greatly valuable, as seen with those confessionals that people give to cults.

Money of the scales that he had then is the tool to doing whatever the hell he wanted, it’s just how it is.

People see money and get blind, controlled, and in lots of those cases do not care about whatever devious nature is going on. Sad reality.

Have to add, in some of the media releases, two different young people reported being threatened with a cursing via a Witch Doctor if they said anything about what had happened to them, or about what was going on which is also grossly manipulative.
