    So you agree? I mean, you’re repeating exactly what I stated. Unless I’m missing something? Which is likely because I’m not that smart.

      Well, capitalism is an economic system while an oligarchy is a form of government. A country doesn’t have to be capitalist to have an oligarchy. Unfettered capitalism just basically guarantees an oligarchy will form.

      So the root problem is still the capitalism that led to the oligarchy.

        Got me there. No other sort of economic system has ever eventually funneled money up to the rich. Perhaps you could provide us some examples of economic systems that worked?
