Same thing with theory of a leisure class. The rich have always controlled outer government. They lost control when FDR got elected and then Nixon started giving back our government to the rich and Reagan opened that pandora station box which I hope we can close if Bernie gets elected and flip the houses to democrats. It will take a couple of cycles if we can convince people it is in their better interests.
