It always has been, it always will be.
I don’t get why anyone is surprised by this sort of thing. Money is the supreme value above all others in USA culture.

Because the the idea that the US was founded as a meritocracy is a core cultural myth that’s taught as fact to every new American. There’s value to constantly repeating challenges to pervasive cultural myths. Won’t change anything for us but might help a few in the next generation see past the bullshit sooner than they otherwise would.
Even after Donald Trump - people still do not know that it is hypocrisy?

Let’s be fair here. Money is the supreme value above all others in ALL of modern culture. Not just USA. If you have a billion dollars you can do basically anything you want, anywhere you want to do it.
Example: Donald J. Trump
Jeff Bezos is a better example
Right? I mean you can find rampant nepotism in almost every facet of modern society
We’re gonna have to actually mobilize to change that. Or a disaster, including global war,which tbh, is more likely. All of it. They ain’t just gonna give it up. They’re too insulated from reprise. We are hooked, lied and sunk.
Look at trump. Only reason he’s getting fucked, slowly, is cause he went a bit too far. Gotta keep the exploitation and scummery tasteful so as not to draw attention from the filthy beggars.
