“In 2008 I began to despair, that there was no real pathway to improve American systems. That our democracy had been replaced by an oligopolistic system of capitalism. I read an article in the New Yorker about the decent of American democracy into a system of oligopolistic politics, that articulated my fears. The basic premise was that capitalism had transitioned from the American system of economics to our system of governance when corporate political contributions became protected “free speech”. The impact of this was to transform our free-market democracy into an oligopolistic political system in which only corporate entities were in the driver seat.“
