Oligarchy is a political system where a small group of usually incredibly wealthy individuals are the rulers, usually indirectly through lobbying a head of state, though this group can rule directly in some cases.

Beliefs
Most people who believe in Oligarchical forms of government generally belief that an Oligarchy is inescapable and natural.
This is belief is backed by commonly seen statistical phenomena as the Pareto principle and the less scientific Sturgeon's Law. With Pareto principle being the principle stating that within most given scenarios 20% of the population will be responsible for 80% of the productivity, and Sturgeon's law being the general rule that around 90% of any given selection will be of low quality (which can be applied to people and their ability to rule others).
The Pareto principle can be seen in the polcompball community, with 20% of users receiving 90% of upvotes.
Another example of statistical likelihood of Oligarchical systems to emerge is Robert Michel's Iron Law of Oligarchy, which is a rule stating that fundamentally all large organisations are oligarchical in nature and any attempt at getting rid of such a structure fundamentally (such as done in Socialist Parties and Trade Unions) only ends up re-enforcing it.
