Question

some have argued that United state’s resembles and oligarchy more than democracy.

Answer 1

America is not a democracy but an oligarchy.The complicated fact, however, is that the American political economy is both an oligarchy and a monarchy; the question is to consider how these two modes of politics will coexist under one structure. Sorting out this duality begins with a understanding of the different forms of force involved in each domain. Oligarchy depends on the accumulation of material power, on the distribution of non-material power, on equality. As many countries, the American system pits a handful with financial control against the majority with the control of engagement.
