Is inequality and money hijacking the American Democracy?

All this cannot be done if America has really consolidated society. Only United under the common idea possible to oppose the forces trying to tear America apart. To deprive Americans of the right to arms it would be 50% of their victory.

Well, those who argued in favor of taking away the guns lost the elections. Now Republicans are in a majority in the senate and the house. A republican president in power will ensure that pro-gun right judges will be appointed in the SCOTUS.

With AI taking away manual and even middle intellectual jobs (see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1538764.msg17436590#msg17436590) inequality will rise even more, moving into poverty or welfare the less brilliant/educated ones.

Money has always been the real issue in American Democracy, or should i say the whole world. The USA democracy has been hijacked by Wall Street, They control the Politicians and most of the laws seems to benefit them instead of the populace. Obama had the opportunity to make them answerable to the greedy ways but instead he choose to bail them out when they plunged the country into recession am sure he lost the respect of the people and am sure contributed to the Democrats losing the elections aside choosing a candidate who was stained with controversy.
