The
Hiding of Whom the Rulers of America Are
Eric Zuesse, March 30, 2022
For some reason, I am the only person who publicly asserts
that America’s roughly a thousand billionaires virtually own the U.S.
Government, and that they donate so much money to the candidates who win the
primary elections, in both political Parties, for the U.S. House and Senate,
and for governorships, so that America’s billionaires actually winnow-out and
eliminate each and every political candidate who wants to serve the
public more than to serve billionaires. In other words:
political conflicts in America are conflicts
between its billionaires — not conflicts actually within
America’s public-at-large (such as would be the case in any authentic democracy). In other words: America is ruled for the
benefit ONLY of those roughly a thousand individuals who own the controlling
blocs of stock in America’s largest corporations, including in virtually all of
America's ‘news’-media, and in the corporations (like Lockheed Martin) that
derive all of their profits from selling to the U.S. Government and
to all of its foreign vassal-regimes or ‘allies’. In other words: America’s great Founders, who had
waged the Revolutionary War in order to replace the existing aristocracy,
which was British, and to replace it with an authentic majority-rule
democracy, have finally (as-of the present time), failed, because America
now has actually a reborn aristocracy, and this reconstituted aristocracy
consists of America’s own billionaires. They’re just as much a
dictatorship as Britain’s aristocracy were, but almost entirely homegrown
instead of 100% foreign (such as that British aristocracy were). This reconstituted aristocracy
consists of the wealthiest Americans, instead of the wealthiest Englishmen.
Therefore, America’s conflicts — both foreign and domestic — are either against
foreign countries that America’s aristocracy aim to add to their existing
empire, or else are against America’s public, or are against both. The foreign
conflicts are dealt with by imposing economic sanctions, subversions, coups,
and military invasions; but the domestic conflicts are dealt with
simply by the ancient aristocratic maxim of “divide and rule” — splitting up
the enemy (in this case the American people) into gays versus
straights, Whites versus Blacks, “our” religion versus their religion or no
religion at all, or any other manufactured (such as ethnic) “us versus them,”
but not EVER the ACTUAL one, which is billionaires-versus-the-public. This is
how they stay in power and constantly increase their power (their
dictatorship).
