There isn't smoky room somewhere where 5 families control the world. Everyone gets their money from somewhere and that's where their balls are located if you want to get them.
The problem is more systemic than that. Once you get to the upper echelons of society -- you share interests with people with very little need for formal co-ordination. 80% of investment in this country is oil or oil-related..
Banker's prioritize low inflation so as not to rob themselves of their investment returns. This means they would rather have a recession and high unemployment than inflation.
You don't need to go all the way to Rothschild controlling the world to explain why elites do what they do. It's about class and not individuals. This is the problem rightwing thinkers tend to have, they think in terms of individuality a lot and have a harder time understanding systems and how its all a machine that takes a life of its own at a certain point.

Also, don't fool yourself that companies like Facebook and Amazon doesn't have your file (sorted by SS# most likely) somewhere with every website you have ever visited, online purchase and other spending behavior, personality type etc...They probably don't care about most of this information about most people most the time, but if you become a person of interest -- it's over. Unless you live some kind of clandestine life -- they got your number.
Microsoft is going to launch a satellite that can see the entire world with like a 1 second delay. Foucault panopticon is becoming a reality for all of us.
