George W. Bush didn't just fail to monitor the plutocrats, or put the guilty ones in jail, he empowered the plutocrats. And I'm quite sure John McCain would've done the same and the Republican Party has consistently appointed people to the Supreme Court that have empowered the plutocrats. Thus the plutocratic oligarchy we now find ourselves living under. So I assume you will be voting for Bernie as he is the only presidential contender that is going to take the plutocrats on and put a Democrat on the Supreme Court to reverse the citizens United decision that among other things enabled the rise of the plutocrats. The Republicans had this theory for 50 years or so that society does not need social scientists to organize the society. They believe the less government the better and that the plutocrats and capitalism left unattended will allow the society to operate efficiently unattended. Here is what one of the smartest economists/people that ever lived had to say about that: "Capitalism is the astounding belief that the most wickedest of men will do the most wickedest of things for the greatest good of everyone." John Maynard Keynes
