Money and corruption often go hand in hand, regardless of the ruling system.

What do you conclude about rulership, if its interests are separate from the interests of the disempowered?

Where the money from the wealthy flows directly into our governance.

Why do the wealthy leverage state power toward their particular interests, and what do you imagine would stop them from doing so?

stop reversing all the incredible progress made in the 20th century

Why was progress made during certain periods, and why was it later reversed during others?

These problems are all solvable under the current system, it just takes lawmakers who give a flying fuck.

Why are lawmakers indifferent to the struggles of the masses, and what would cause them to become more engaged?
