And no outside of the normal campaign contributions I don’t think most people in the top 1% are paying politicians.

What is important to people is not always the same as what is best for them. That is where decision-making comes into play.

And, yes, I do believe I can say that a two-class society is not good for the majority of people. We have history to show us that.

Also, I believe that rich people give incredible sums of money to influence politicians and political decisions. We have an entire industry built upon seeking their donations.
