I don't want to waste a lot of time explaining how it all works in intricate detail because THAT'S the part you need years of study to untangle one thread at a time. You don't study power, so you tend to think of people who operate in a capitalist society and its apparatus as independent actors while ignoring the (often concealed) reality that a very small number of people own everything in that society. But the information is out there if you want to find it.
