Sir Walter Scott
There is something to be said for government by a great aristocracy which has furnished leaders to the nation in peace and war for generations; even a democrat like myself must admit this. But there is absolutely nothing to be said for government by a plutocracy, for government by men very powerful in certain lines and gifted with the money touch, but with ideals which in their essence are merely those of so many glorified pawnbrokers.

I would suspect that if future historians ever manage to burrow into what has been happening the last 10 or more years as US society seems to be have been fragmenting, they will find the Zuckerbergs, Soros’s, and Gate’s, et al, will be found to have had significant influence. Especially Soros.
I don’t mean to get biblical here but I’m pretty sure Soros is evil personified.
Yes, these people have been doing major damage to our country. And it seems like it’s not just about money. It’s malicious.
