    An Oligarchic Republic, your wealth determines how many votes you get. In this system, the 99% of poor voters are shit.

    We will need wealth floors and ceilings in a revised Constitution in order to get rid of this issue. Economics, politics, and violence, are just different faces of power. The great mistake of the Founding Fathers was failing to recognize that money needs checks and balances, else it runs out of control.
