    The government isn’t a monolith.

    Yes, there are oligarchs influencing policies that make a standard of living hell on earth.

    There are also great people within the government who are actively trying to improve the state of things.

      it’s all about possession of power. the good people working for the feds have to do their good work despite their bosses handing our value over to the greedy parasites

        No, it’s all about who possesses money. Corporations got $100 against every one of your puny worthless votes.

            Not necessarily. Power and money are often hand in hand, but power can exist without money.

              exactly. but money can’t exist without power. money only represents an accumulation of value stolen through violence
