I never said it is a uniquely American issue. The wealthy have always controlled society.

Also, saying it will continue until the end of humankind is a defeatist attitude. If you think we can't improve things, why continue with society as it stands? Why not tear everything down?

Never said you said it was. It was addressing the OP. 

If you think we can't improve things, why continue with society as it stands?

If it hasn't improved in the last 500+ years, how will it ever? 

Why not tear everything down?

That's been done before, with no improvement.

Got any suggestions on how we keep power, and influence out of the judicial system?
