90 million people is around 8% of the adult population. The equivalent would be people in the US who went to "good" Universities. Basically anywhere in the top 50 schools per US News and World Report.
Functionally, that serves the same purpose here as CPC membership does.

He's kinda tipping his hand. He probably only knows PMC members so his personal experience with that would be true.
I never meant to imply that CPC members were all PMC goons. Just trying to draw a parallel to the US, where no one questions our ~10% elite.

Right, compare it to say SCOTUS where something like 3 of 9 went to the same elitist high school.
This sounds more like going to UCLA or UW or something. Pretty achievable barring really lousy circumstances.
The Atlantic (lol) did a story on America's elite 10% for comparison

UCLA is way harder to get into than UW
I just picked 2 state schools with good reputations
