Anyway I was wondering what everyone(including people outside of the USA) thought our current form of goverment would be categorized as? Personally I would call it pretty close to an Oligarchy Or maybe a Plutocracy. What do you think? |
plutocracy for sure... oligarchy... yep...
so possibly a plutoligarchy?
