Sources this, just wait that.

Politicians and extremely wealthy people do not play by the rules set out for the rest of us, nor do they suffer the same punishments. Make no mistake, we have a ruling class.

Roger Stone gets a 4am raid, swat team and snipers, a dozen FBI, helicopter overhead, for not tipping enough at McDonalds.

Not impressed.

David Brooks, of all people, has written about this. But things when to hell when we created this meritocracy after WW2.

The old ruling class went out the door, and they were replaced by this venal class of graspers. People that weren’t particularly well educated, and had zero sense of a common good. They were simply in it for themselves.

The old elites were far more competent, and because they had largely been in power for several generations, they looked at politics as an obligation, not as a source of prestige or wealth.
