      Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin, etc vast majority of American founding fathers were "oligarch" (rich people with political power). So, United States of America is, and always been, an oligarchy since the very beginning. You know, kinda like Venice, Genoa, Hanseatic League, etc.
      Anyway, oligarchy seems to work somewhat better than most other types of government (i.e. Oligarchic society almost always wealthier than Aristocracy, Theocracy, Bureaucratic society, Technocracy like USSR, etc).

    • @WillN2Go1
      @WillN2Go1 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Don't assume success in one domain applies to other fields. Musk clearly knows nothing about politics and history. He's aping fascist ideologies. Twitter X is a disaster. He insisted on overpaying for it, he pissed off the major advertisers, people are fleeing the site. How much did it cost to set up Bluesky? Probably significantly less than the $44 billion Musk insisted on paying for Twitter, and also significantly less than the $8 B Twitter/X is now said to be worth.
      I'm a Tesla investor. I know what Musk can do and what he can't. He doesn't.

      He is a successful salesman just like trump. He has not created anything of value. His first company sold a database product that was completely useless. His code was never implemented into Paypal, but they didn't do due diligence before paying him for it. He has nothing to do with the designs of his companies, Starlink, Space X, Tesla, Boring.... all these companies were already developed, and he just bought them. Wait. I'm wrong. He did design something recently. The Cybertruck is his first design, and that is overall been reviewed as a dud of a product with a litany of problems.
