    How can a vast majority of the people sit there and let a tiny percentage dictate the lives and rules for everyone?

    Is that a serious question?

    The vast majority of the world lives like that…

    Even in first world countries.

    I’m American, and a very very tiny percentage of other Americans hold the vast amount of wealth and use it to buy the majority of both parties off so that literally no matter who wins any election, they’re going to be someone that puts corporate profits over the average American.

    Where do you live that’s truly led by the majority?

      Fun fact, the dynamic where the majority class controls the “rules” is called communism. Maybe they want us to give it a go here in the US?
