You give someone authority over you.

Regardless if "the service" is a bar, a school, a website, municipality or country.

Majority power 
Let's say each person's authority is equal, and expressed as 1.
If the locals decide to vote on a state statute and 500 vote yes and 100 vote no then their authority of 500 is greater than 100 and we accept yes.
That's the theory at least. In all reality is that how it works every time? No, but there is some logic behind it.
Even when a majority agrees and passes a law they sometimes can not enforce it on some others. Many are grandfathered into the new law and many appeal to a higher court.
Never feel disvalued or unequal! Only isolated and outnumbered

The law may say men are equal but no power on Earth can make it true. I have good skills but they are different than yours. My ability to play basketball is less than Lebron James, despite that he is younger and more inexperienced than I am.
The way men are equal is in our capacity for courage. To do the right thing, and to give our best effort in protecting our children. We all have that capacity, but not all of us will.
There's a man who won the congressional medal of honor, his name escapes me at the moment, for a brave action that saved the lives of his friends but cost him his own life. He had no higher capacity for courage than you or I do. He felt the same fear that you or I would have. But he did what he had to do anyways. Thats how men are equal, but only in capacity for courage and moral fiber. Every man in that situation would have had an equal opportunity for bravery, yet very few would actually be so brave.

majority power is an illusion there is a committee that has the power to disregard the peoples votes if they believe its a threat to the system

That's why i say in theory 
Even dictator-like groups are brought down by other groups with more "majority power". Look at Cuba!
You either have more votes or more soldiers, either way there are strength in numbers A.K.A. majority power.

we only get to vote on the people we hear of running now what defines what candidates we hear of running that's simple the vast amount of wealth used spent on advertisement the extremely wealthy defines the candidates the extremely wealthy define everything and the worst part about it is they control the central banks the federal reserve they print the money they manipulate every system that's in place and they did it so ingeniously that they have convinced the masses they have choices like a carrot on a stick attached to your forehead no matter how fast you run your not getting the carrot

Everyone is different, not equal. We can celebrate the differences but somepeople are objectively worse at some things then others, and it is through this objective measure of skill and rarity that plays SOME part in why some have more and some have less.

Th..th..that just sounds like slavery with extra steps!
Ooh-la-la, someone's gonna get laid in college.

Even if we connected the dots. There are how many people willing to do anything about it? A few hundred maybe? How many police, national guard, military, and contractors do the government have?

A pet peeve of mine is people tossing around the word slave, lol. A slave means literally one thing to me: Humans owning other humans through instantaneous violence.
