The USA politically is only has pluralism on the social side -

"There isn't a Democratic or Republican party, only the money party."

There is little pluralism for finance and business
There is even less pluralism on foreign policy, which is dominated by small number of people.

Most of the "debate" centers on social issues - abortion, welfare, education, drugs, health care, etc.

The US has cultural and ethnic diversity, but considerably less political diversity.

The Newsweek people seem to be unaware of the US and UK middle class in the 19th century, who tended to nationalism and expansion in much the same way as the people they write about.
