Yes, it is certainly true that (like in the oil/railroad barrons' day) a small number of people hold incredibly amounts of wealth...
But that doesn't mean it doesn't "work". The median income level in the US is far higher than just about anywhere else in the world, and even our "poverty" level exceeds the median income of many countries.
The system needs some tweaking (a new President would help)... but not replacement.
