Capitalism

Oligarchy can be classified into two types as the old and the new. The old is based on families that are old and established and have accumulated large holdings, and wherein succession is by birthright. The new is the neuvo-rich that is comprised of some families, but primarily in these times, it is the power of the corporations that are owned by numerous individuals, but that are controlled by the few. The oligarchy exists world wide within every country, excepting for the socialist nations such as Cuba or China, where a primary goal is to get rid of the oligarchies. However it seems to be the case, that new oligarchies come into being within the state government apparatus. This is natural to government policy that is stated as materialist. The oligarchies of various countries often contend with one another as imperialist ambitions.

Democratic Capitalism called here Economacy, means a political system in which the outcomes of elections are determined by money. It means politicians represent moneyed interests and not the people. It means the politicians have to ask the people with the most money to finance them. Money is the agent of all social and political relations.

Elections cost so much because the mass media is Capitalist, and only people and parties with a lot of money can afford political advertising. Capitalist corporate mass media is the root of all evil. So naturally the rich have an advantage, to include political parties in which in Capitalist systems are only two, as the business party and the worker become business party while pretending to be pro worker, which collect money from the rich, middle and the masses to distribute it to their candidates.
