Is America an oligarchy? Even a system that calls itself a democracy can become an oligarchy if power becomes concentrated in the hands of a few very wealthy people and corporations.

Yes, the Citizens United verdict set the stage for oligarchy. Now, it has reached its culmination.

Yes we are. The rich have enough power to have a president step aside. They control food prices. They control the jobs, etc.

Yes. PACs have made it worse, allowing big business and the superrich to essentially buy a candidate.

Wow, Robert, you look like your lost a dog, the only being that might be loving you. You look like a train wreck. What happened? You worked so hard for fascism and the billionaire globalists oligarchs - and failed - and now that you've failed they've outcast you and you're on your own little world with all your misery and every student you've ever had knows that you're a fraud, a promoter of fascism and hatred and extremism, basically a Goebbels in disguise, a nation divider, a liar, etc etc? What happened to you? Still dreaming of Babylon, of the Third Nazi Reich? Yes, we all know that a system labeling itself "democracy" and "Democrats" easily can become a tyrannical fascist citizen hating machine; we've all experienced that over the recent 4 years with this fascist machine, and actually also longer back when Obama was president. That's what you're promoting, Reich. Fascism.

That's where we are now. I can hardly wait for Trump's administration to break the dam.

Yeah, that's why we voted for Trump, to break it up.
