Another interesting thing about this how it is more frightening to many people that "no one" is in charge than having a small number of people with a lot of power. I have thought a lot about this and logically this fear makes little sense. But then, most people don't think or act logically. We follow the crowd and are easily influenced. We are influenced to trust "authority" from a very young age in school and it is re-enforced all over the place.
