    I wouldn’t say fixed as things are the same way as they are, but reminded us how every day we are fucked by oligarchs.

    This is a weird time as we just elected them, just look how many billionaires are in trump’s cabinet picks.

      as we just elected them

      That’s because the system is rigged. We can only ever choose between one rich person and another.

            Similar in the sense that one has an estimated net worth of three hundred times as much as the other.

      To fix is not the same thing as fixed. He’s done more towards fixing the problem. This said, it’s very important to reiterate, as you have, that nearly NOTHING hss still been accomplished.
