Today’s Tech Oligarchs Are Worse Than the Robber Barons

[Drahthaardogs]

9. We are not an oligarchy, we are not subjects, and we are far better than my ancestors

however, i do believe that there are those, who if given the chance, would govern by divine right, as perceived by the rich. Trump is one of those.

We will never be an oligarchy, because there are men and women who will stand for it. We came damned close in the early part of this century.

i guess we agree that an unmotivated electorate is a dangerous thing. i guess we differ though in your biggest fear is an electorate unmotivated out of despair, while mine is an electorate unmotivated out of complacency.
