        It's virtually impossible for an authoritarian state to work without severe inequality. That's what's needed to keep people in line.

        I guess that's why Trump keeps talking to Putin. Getting all the tips he can to make us Russia light.

        Bought off politicians. Biggest gap between rich and poor in a century and they want to expand it even more with tax theft from the middle and lower classes.

        @realDonaldTrump wants to be just like Putin. So just wait, there is more pain to come for citizens and more wealth for him and his family. @GOP

        There's no doubt in my mind that Trump & the GOP are following Putin's playbook to drain every cent from public coffers, and that Putin will get his cut.

        Sadly that 1 percent likely employes 80 percent of the population so without them we’d be eating grass or zoo animals like they do in DPNK or Venuzala.
