   I concur... And as Critter have fairly noted, US population's fabric   
   has been divided on 2 segments, both going apart toward extremes of   
   their opposite directions, in terms of own welfare and possessions. And   
   that is exactly the principals of still prevailing Gulag Economy which   
   was invented by despotic monarchs and tyrannical rulers long before   
   this term came up do describe it.   
   Politicians are keeping this inheritance for their own convenience and   
   leverages of control, at least for the period during their leadership.   
   The true politics, though, together with their economical and military   
   powers, are in the hands of rulers of corporate dynasties, which change   
   hands from one relative to another.  Some of them are easily   
   identifiable, like Kennedy's and Windsor's, but many more are   
   thoroughly camouflaged, being blended through their industrial   
   partnerships throughout the whole world. Majority of those dynasties   
   you can find in Western part of Europe, China, and middle east.   
      
   If you'll take some of the most paid CEOs of North America, they are   
   all related, earning totals of half billion dollars each, yearly, while   
   there are many millions of homeless across "richest countries of the   
   world" , whose life's destination is in the hands of the incarceration   
   industry.
