Turning the working class into debt-serfs and well-connected rent-seeking oligarchs into aristocracy is exactly the objective of Establishment politicians across the West.
Just like in your prediction, except that the super-wealthy aren't paying their way.
This judgement won't move the needle much either way; but allowing income taxes but not wealth taxes is BS as policy.
It's not the goal. It's the status quo that was hidden for most for a long time.
What you see as an agenda is just your self revealing the idea to your self that there has always been an aristocracy.
Accountability is what counts. But that can only be demanded if eyes of the public are wide open.
True enough.
I think it ebbs and flows on a generationnal timeframe, though, and right now the trends aren't favourable. :(
