You couldn't find a "democracy" that could survive such a thing besides the US either... |
That's the question - if it really has survived until here. You know I labelled the US a plutocracy in the past, and the European nations oligarchies turning into plutocracies.
I would say the author of that essay probably would not totally agree with me, but wants to warn of exactly this developement: the loss of democracy, due to dynasties taking over.
