@georgetakei wait. He's actual family of the other Kennedy?

I thought the US was a Republic. Not a monarchy?

@berkes @georgetakei In the US I think it's mostly that Money is a fast track to power, and (some) families hoard money.

@Retreival9096 @georgetakei how would such a system, where wealth determines who governs, be called? A a plutocracy?

@berkes @georgetakei No no, I'm sure I was taught in grade 12 it is a democracy. They wouldn't lie to me, would they?
