Oh come on.  GHWBush then GWBush then Jeb?  Bill then Hillary then Chelsea?  The government was already an outright oligarchy, hereditary no less.

LOL, Bill was born Arkansas white trash, he would have never become president in the first place if the US were a full-blown oligarchy. Rolleyes

I'm not saying we were already an oligarchy in 1992; that was a long time ago.  We are now, though.

Putting government in charge of protecting the people from the economic elites is definitely a fox guarding the hen house situation.
