I've never watched the show but i've studied history a fair a bit and so know a bit about what you're talking about. I'd say all main societies that have existed are pretty much the same, but slightly different levels of perception of positon. What we have now isn't so different to feudalism. Instead of royalty and aristocracy we have the bankers and a system of money that regulates everyone. There are still labourers, enforcers, and the men at the top are still pretty much the same. In a way a societal memory complex could perhaps be seen akin to a mind/body/spirit complex with its different levels and rays. Perhaps it was much more obvious in feudal times. There will always be people at different levels of progress, so there will always have to be people to fill each role. What would the point of this density be if everyone was equal?
