AOC: “America was founded in revolt of British aristocracy. The American Revolution was against the billionaires of their time. It’s actually the most American thing in the world for us to be fighting for the working class. It’s actually patently un-American to transform our country into a place of kings and landed gentry”

I'm speaking vaguely but I'm just saying the fabulously wealthy King wouldnt let the overstuffed rich colonial aristocrats suck up quite as much gold and real estate as they wanted. That doesn't imply that they were behind the rest of the British empire, just behind one guy
