Do You Believe There's A Ruling Class That Controls Our Government. Perhaps You Have Seen The Film "the Ruling Class?"

Like a young, naive middle class teenager, I did not comprehend there was truly a important class plan within the U.S.I strongly think given that there's a ruling class, comprising about 2% of the populace, which does manage the national, state, and district authorities, despite the fact that I do nonetheless think in the ability of the getting involved with municipality, and I am employed with a lot of politics usually to some degree. In my opinion this is accurate the majority of the worldis nations.My personal political viewpoint is that for the time being, there is and often has been a ruling class and the operating class, and that the ruling class ostensibly lives from -- and has a globe to reside in at all -- on the basis of the operate and sacrifices of the working class. I variety from the functioning poor, functioning class, middle and even upper middle class within the operating class in my own viewpoint.Have you noticed the movies "The Ruling Class" or "The Organization?"Study "Nickle and Dimed," or "Bait and Switch?"they truly are all wonderful.

sole purpose is to accumulate wealth and power at the expense of others.  I can't say I agree that they control all facets of government, since the government is so large, but they certainly exhibit an influencing factor through the wealth and power they already have.  The leeches at the top will always be there, even if the working class rises up and destroys them; a new class of leeches will develop in the vacuum left by the old leeches.

I don't believe that a few very rich individuals actually control the government.   I do believe they don't have to follow the same rules we do if, they follow any rules at all.   Being exempt from the rules does not imply comtrol, just immunity.   I agree that this sorry condition permiates the world and prevents actual freedom.

Yes I do but I think that predominately its corporations and wall street that rules now - the perversely wealthy are among an in-crowd that don't play by the same rules we do and benefit from them -- so they get even more perversely wealthy.

While I haven't seen the movies you are referring to, I firmly believe there is a "ruling class" in the US, whose sole purpose is to accumulate wealth and power at the expense of others.  I can't say I agree that they control all facets of government, since the government is so large, but they certainly exhibit an influencing factor through the wealth and power they already have.  The leeches at the top will always be there, even if the working class rises up and destroys them; a new class of leeches will develop in the vacuum left by the old leeches.
