Researchers at Princton indicate we have a corporatist oligarchy.
We were intended to be a republic not a democracy as most of the articles reporting this claim. Democracy and oligarchy are both very bad and if this report tells us anything it's that we need to get power out of the hands of our government.
This government is corrupt and destined to fail.
Caveat: Most revolutions or government collapse end with an even more oppressive government. So there's that fun bit too.
