Initiatives v Oligarchy

Our Founders' Warning: “Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the people alone. The people themselves are its only safe depositories.” (Thomas Jefferson)

Plutocratic Republic

A plutocratic republic is a country that is both a republic and a plutocracy. It is one where ultimate authority and power is derived from plutocrats, and the government itself is run by a majority of officials chosen, financed, and promoted by the plutocrats for the citizens to elect. If an elected official opposes plutocratic policy, the plutocracy will choose another and will attempt to ensure that the opposing official fails at the next election. (CUSDI.org)
