We The People have not always been slaves, but it has been so for a long, long time.

In the beginning, our ancestors wandered alone, hunting in the darkness of night. We then began to wander in groups so that if one was attacked, the others could fight or run. Over time, these groups became tribal villages, with gender (man / woman) and age (child / adult / elder) roles. Within each tribal village, the men created order, and the women created the village. The Evil Establishment was born with empire, with men who imposed order on a scale larger than a single village. We became slaves as people, and power, became concentrated in cities, beginning 5000 years ago. As power became concentrated, an Establishment emerged in opposition to the general power of We The People. It is in that sense that it was evil, and is why the phrase "The Evil Establishment" is used on IDEAFARM.COM.
