A study from Princeton and Northwestern Universities concludes that U.S. political policy is determined by the economic elite, not the majority of citizens.

This is what .world and .works are fighting to keep in place, with their rabid anti* communism.

This is what racism and anticommunism, anti LGBTQ are fighting to preserve and send to poorest to die to achieve and expand it.

    How would we know without a years long formalized political science study, when we could just have just applied a simple scientific and philosophically method to it?

    The difference between their conclusions and our conclusions is that their conclusions are 'sound'.

    Yes but those elites tell me that this is the best system that we can possibly have, and since they have all the money and power in the system that they invented, they must be right. So I'll just believe them and parrot everything they want me to and never think about it at all.

    Incredible, amazing, how smart of these fancy pants Ivy Leaguers to have discovered this, I'm sure no one was writing about how capitalism always ends up like this 150 years ago or anything.

    It is always funny when western capitalist academia does this, they spend decades trying to disprove a basic fact about capitalism, suppressing anything from communists writing about it, then when they can deny it no longer they pretend that they "discovered" it and it is a strange new thing, instead of how the system has been behaving all along.
