MOTU

Acronym. Masters Of The Universe. The transnational, global elite that runs the world; there are approximately 1000 billionaires at the top of the power curve worldwide, a vanishingly small percentage of the population. The MOTU are mainly motivated by greed, but also by fear. "Really, if the lower orders don't set us a good example, what on earth is the use of them?" -- Oscar Wilde
