The West's shared value is oligarchy

The West says that the Russian Federation is authoritative, and that is why it is not a democracy. It is, however, true that Russia does not allow her oligarchs to run her government like the West does, but that is the only way to have a real democracy.

The United States (US), which claims to be the champion of democracy, is precisely the nation that the world considers the biggest threat to peace. US citizens are only 35% satisfied with their multiparty "democratic" political system. Almost 40 million Americans live today in poverty, and 201 million more live from paycheck to paycheck, while 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are also Americans.

Moreover, Puerto Rico, inhabited by an "inferior race", has been a US colony for the past 128 years. The US has consistently refused to comply with 43 United Nations resolutions demanding the immediate return of Puerto Rico's sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. 6 million Puerto Ricans have abandoned their national territory (gentrification), and almost half of the 3 million people in Puerto Rico also live in poverty.

The People's Republic of China is another nation that does not allow her oligarchs to run her government. That is how China was able to eradicate poverty 6 years ago, despite having 4 times the US' population, and having 11 trillion dollars less than the US. Over 90% of Chinese are satisfied with their one party communist political system.

The American middle class, the Anglo-Saxon protestant MAGA supporters, started to become poor when US oligarchs decided to move their production abroad in the 1990's to use cheaper labor. As Americans become poorer, another US civil war is likely. Many states have already voiced their desire to secede from the Union, and Minneapolis recently had a general strike supported by both the city and state. 

US President Abraham Lincoln said, "government of the people, by the people, for the people" in his Gettysburg Address during the American Civil War. Will Americans be able to make that happen?

Oligarchs can't run a real democracy.
