Hilarious thing I just read.
There was a position during the Tudor Period called the "grooms of the stool" whose job was to wipe the king's backside after #2. Why would someone want such a disgusting position? To be close to power, of course.
Lots of fiat and altcoin rent-seekers who wipe metaphorical crap for a chance at influence.
