Has there ever been a society that wasn’t governed by the wealthy?

I wonder how much money JFK had when he was President?

 

[Deflatedhoopdreams]

Money and connections.

And live in a district that can be easily manipulated

This is what I was going to say

Why wouldn't you want wealthy politicians? Who's easier to bribe? The congressperson worth $100 million or the congressperson with student loan debt

What if you live in a red district and are broke and work a part time job making 10 dollars an hour? Can you still run for office and win?

how creative can you be....? set up a website and talk about how libs have an underground coffee shop where they drink lattes with the blood of white babies mixed in with a side of "down with whitey avocado toast"....

listen, if you don't have much money we are going to have to go extra creative... i'm willing to be your campaign manager... worst case scenario, after millions of dollars pour into our campaign, if you don't win, you're still rich.... remember to sell the idea that libs want to take everybody's guns from them and replace them with a hugging cloth... when you feel scared, you hug and cry into this cloth and the danger will magically go away.... if that doesn't get you votes, nothing will...

Wealthy politicians live in a different reality. Their priorities aren’t the same as their constituents.

And if the majority of their fundraising is coming from other rich people and lobbyists, who do you think they will serve first?


Not to mention, 99.99% of wealthy people always want more money no matter what.
