Oligarchy and Plutocracy

When the country is more affected by the decisions of monied interests, corporations and wealthy oligarchs … can you really still keep calling it a democracy?

The problem with housing is that it is no longer being seen, financed or managed as a system to house or shelter people … it’s being managed as another way to squeeze more wealth out of those people that have little to no money for the benefit of those that don’t really need any more wealth than they already have.

Just look at the decision makers of this issue … many of them already own and manage multiple real estate investments and are trying to monetize it themselves … yet they are the ones deciding on what to do about this issue.

It’s not a problem through the actions or mere existence of average people … it’s a problem of wealth and greed.

It’s a terribly disgusting runaway stage four cancer that we are trying to treat with skin cream and essential oils.
