Billionaire BlackRock CEO oligarch, Larry Fink said it “really doesn’t matter” who wins the U.S. presidential election, because both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will be good for Wall Street.

Ben Norton shows how the United States is not a democracy but rather an oligarchy, in which big corporations buy politicians and lobbyists create policies.
