The issue is, ultimately, the accumulation of wealth, which translates to an accumulation of control (nothing to do with spending) resulting in a plutocracy (aka Citizens United), which is essentially what every tin pot dictatorship is, even though they may have arrived there by different routes.

Okay, then going with your theory, the 1% should always get their way. Do they? This is a much longer discussion, but I’ll go with it as far as we can. What, in your opinion, does the 1% want? Let’s take the upcoming election, as an example. Who are they backing?
