This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Elon flushed 44B and made 96B just this half year.
The game isn't right somewhere.
The game was rigged from the start.
Always has been.
Haha never has been
There's one interesting thought that never comes up in history class...
What happened to the aristocracy?
They didn't give back their land holdings (basically anywhere), they didn't pay reparations, they didn't give up their investments... In some places, they never stopped getting a stipend.
France and Russia. They killed the aristocracy (although others filled the void). In the Americas, if they existed they were killed and replaced with Europeans. In much of Asia, Africa, and the Pacific, locals were raised up to the position.
The US is organized into counties (Counts), territories (Marquis), and states (Duke). There's a couple commonwealths like Virginia too... Why? What does landowners mean? It's all over the constitution. A jury of your peers sounds a lot like a group from the peerage. A redress of grievances from the federal government isn't an option for the common man, but it's in the bill of rights.
When did it end? Because Lord Fairfax isn't a title held anymore, but Fairfax county VA most certainly still hosts the Fairfax family, who are extremely wealthy landlords. They called capitalists who rose up from the common people "robber barons" only a few generations ago... Maybe not because they stole from the people (Carnegie and Rockefeller most certainly gave back to the community), maybe because they didn't come from a certain social class? Name a billionaire or a senator that didn't come from the "I never have to work" class...I can't.
Yeah, the game is rigged. It has been since Rome. The lines have been blurred, but they're still clear if you look for them
"Why is America constructed similarly to the country the people who founded it were from"
C'mon man this is not a conspiracy lol. There is no true American aristocracy, in the way an aristocracy is actually defined. Having money is a very good thing, and your life is easier if you have it. That's not a conspiracy.
