Not an american but personally i would most definitely prefer an absolute fuckwad with little self control in charge than an evil mastermind entity hellbent on squeezing me for every cent.
The former is too stupid not to ruin his lever of power, which would cause the system to decentralize and/or contribute to said fuckwad's downfall. The latter employs a huge amount of people specifically trained to maintain and increase the amount of profits extracted while maintaining their stranglehold.
