Why have the powerful not completely killed the rest of the people?

A. Ethics/Morals B. Power balance C. People are a valuable resource

I think we are all a little concerned it is C.

It's a grim thought and I'm optimistic, but the stakes are very high. Reminds me of Solaria (Foundation and Earth, Asimov).
