Oligraphy cause we're all getting fucked.
It's been a problem ever since the Industrial Revolution, which oligarchs supplanted the aristocracy while class conflict remained. There were attempts at changing the status quo, or overthrowing it and replacing with a different system, there's so much discussion and debate, but actual success of the masses -- if we must have inclusion of those oppressed regardless of race, creed or faith -- has yet to be seen.
One thing is for certain: this time peaceful and legal options are starting to be exhausted of their energy, as the moneyed enemy isn't going to yield easily.
I love this style of artwork on old political cartoons
Quick, let's vote for Hillary Clinton!
Plutocracy
Factually incorrect. All of them are worth $0 at best.
The US has been an Oligarchy for quite a while now.
Amongst other things that's why Bernie's campaign to be the Democrat candidate was torpedoed directly by the DNC so that Hillary "I got a cool half a million to give a speech to Goldman Sach's traders" Clinton got the nomination and then proceeded to lose to none other than old-money multi-millionaire Donald Trump.
I mean, it's pretty obvious even before Reagan that the Hierarchy Of Power in the US has in many things had Money as a higher power than Democratically Elected Administration - or in other words, the inverse of the order that it should be in Democracy - and that has expanded to pretty much all things since.
The US (and several other so-called "Democratic" nations) hasn't had Democracy for many years.
No one is going to lend me money with a paltry $0.65 on my bank account and the prospect of a week of going to be bed on an empty stomach for dinner as collateral, though
Of course it is. And is also about oligarchs giving orders to the media they control to not call them by that name.
Yes, now realize every establishment Democrat is also paid off by these demons too. Grassroots progressives or RIP the system, I have no other choice.
If you're playing a game by the rules your opponent not only writes, but also actively breaks, and cheats, you're going to lose.
Financial obesity is an existential threat to any society that tolerates it, and needs to cease being celebrated, rewarded, and positioned as an aspirational goal.
Corporations are the only ‘persons’ which should be subjected to capital punishment, but billionaires should be euthanised through taxation.
Blue Shell the rich
Luigi the rich in the streets, the boardrooms, the vacation towns, their homes, or anywhere else.
When the hell did Musk get to 800?
This is nuts! I blinked and it happened
If one ship cost is one bilion dollars(Elon once bought a yacht for one bilion dollars) he could fund all ships for Achaemenid Empire for Battle of Salamis.
Battle of Salamis with super yachts!
Eat the rich.
You remember the Turducken craze? TIme for a Mubezuckison.
