Wealth and power still get concentrated in families and corporations. I would argue that these are just as valid "agents" as the individual.

Families tend to dissipate wealth. The Rockefellers have long since dropped away in wealth, for example. So have the Kennedys.

Corporations are owned by shareholders, who die and pass their wealth on to the government, family, and various charities.
