They have no rights to hold power over others life and property because they are not army commander or dominators. Furthermore, they never participate in making decisions of the history. However, their functions to the history are more conclusive than many famous politicians, more shocked than the generals in commanding army. They can influence the good or ill luck of the society, instead of the edicts of emperor or legislators. They are composed of philosophizers, madman, priests, stock broker, revolutionary armies and noblemen, aesthetes, skeptics and vagrants. The philosophy systems they believed in are the most worldly behaviors in human activitiesthe desire to make money. Who are they? They are the Greatest Economists.
