You get what you pay for. Capitalism 1.0 -- just unveiled being like it ever was. That's what happens when a (pseudo-) democracy never gets fixed, because everyone in the upper class thinks to get away best _with_ all the loopholes.

A president reigning at will, no court being able to really stop the shit show and undoing former president's pardons while using pardons as a tool to side-track courts. The whole construct didn't -- and doesn't -- make sense, if you still aim for anything not being despotism.
