In the US one possible government could be created by voters who refuse to "choose" between Republican OR Democrat when voting for their congressional representatives. For voters with ballots that already contain candidates from established third parties, it's as simple as choosing a Green or Libertarian or American Independent candidate (who isn't already a millionaire) instead of a Democrat or Republican who already depends on the richest 1% of voters to fund their election campaigns and retirements.Oligarchy is thee premier form of representative government, although it is by definition not thee populous form of government since our representation in America does not correlate to the bottom 60%. Oligarchy is rule by the elite and all policy studies from the beginning of this country will reveal this. In the last few decades however, political influence has become a frenzy for investors to invest money into candidates that will enact or pass favorable policy. Hence, the investment theory of politics.
So the question becomes, do you think the elites are doing a good job or do you think the people, the 60% should also have a voice, including yourself?
So how would a government that isn't "ruled by the elite" operate? How would leaders be chosen that weren't part of the "elite?"
FLUSH the DC Toilet next November, and sent the rich a message they haven't heard since Tom Paine died.
How would not voting for a Democrat or a Republican create a new form of government? All it would do is put a new gang in charge.
