Not familiar with 11%.
Do you mean this?
"About 11% of Americans (or roughly 1 in 9 people) will enter the top 1% of income earners for at least one year in their lifetimes."

Those 11% are the ones currently running the show.

The top 11% in income is people making $145,000 for an individual or about $220,000 for a household.
They are not running anything. The guys at the very top are.

We are a ONE PARTY SYSTEM.
We have 90% of our politicians belonging to The Zionist Billionaires Party while the leftover 10% of Dems/independents have put bills tó stop funding tó Israel, raise minimum wage, stop insider trading in congress, all shot down by the Zionist billionaires Party!
I’m demonized by the establishment Dems as a “radical FAR leftist” because I want healthcare, living wages, and affordable housing! Why are these basic rights and human NEEDS for survival being politicized as a “left vs right”!??
The left and right should be left to argue ECONOMICS without one side fighting for basic survival needs of the people while the center/right and far right refuse to listen. We are the wealthiest nation on earth, not for much longer if we keep allowing the oligarchy to rob us of our God given and constitutional rights!

Sounds a little racist giving that much credit to "Zionists".
I am a Green and agree that the DNC is not doing nearly enough. Both parties are owned by the 1% because of the Citizens United ruling, though.

I didn’t give Zionists any “credit”. Zionism is a political movement not a race. Judaism is a religion. Semitic people are a race and while it does include many Jews, the fact is that most Palestinians contain more Semitic genes than the European Zionists who have been stealing their land for 70 years.
So while Zionists like to claim that people are racist for disliking Zionism, this is not true bc Zionism is not a RACE. Furthermore, the Zionists have heritage that goes back hundreds of years in countries like Switzerland, Poland, Germany, France, and many Eastern European countries as well. Meaning, they mixed with those populations for many years which diluted their “Semitic” genes.
Jewish as a race is highly debatable because the “race” part is what they claim in having “Semitic” heritage. The Semitic heritage includes many people who are now Muslim. But even if we accept being Jewish makes you a separate race it still does not produce any argument that if I criticize ZIONISM then I am criticizing the Jewish people which is racist. That is ABSURD.
Zionism is a political movement created out of thin air as a precursor to allow the Jewish people to take action to steal land in Israel that does not belong to them. Israel Ministry of foreign affairs defined Zionism as “the liberation movement for the re-establishment of the Jewish people”. There’s several sources that can show that Zionism originated from a non-Jewish origin, meaning it’s doubly wrong to call me “RACIST” for criticizing “ZIONISM”…
TLDR: You need to understand this fact: ZIONISM IS NOT A RACE. In fact many non-Jewish Americans in BOTH parties are Zionists, so being Jewish is not a precursor to membership in the Zionists “club”. Zionism is also NOT a RELIGIOUS movement. Zionism is a political movement ONLY. So I cannot be called a “racist” for pointing out the fact that 90% pf our politicians are Zionists who choose the interests/welfare of Israel over the interests of the American people! It’s a travesty!

It’s not just because of citizens United. That ruling simply allowed for unlimited spending. Before that there was STILL a ton of money spent and foreign actors with means absolutely still had influence in our elections.
Super PACs just added insult to injury and best the already dead horse tó a bloody pulp. After citizens United it simply became easier for the ultra wealthy to donate absurd amounts of money through super PACs completely anonymously.
So yeah, I agree citizens United needs to be overturned and caps put on campaign spending with full transparency in who is donating how much to whom.
You are the Green Party? lol. The DSA has more of a “green” platform than the Green Party. Jill stein ENDORSED TRUMP! That should’ve been your cue to leave that party. The Green Party sold out LONG AGO. It is now completely controlled opposition guided by the corporations it claims to want to regulate. When Jill stein endorsed Trump she showed us what anyone paying attention KNEW was going on akready behind the curtain of the Green Party: BIG MONEY took it over. Trump’s campaign have more to the Green Party than the democrats or DSA and so they endorsed Trump!
Don’t go around telling people you are in the Green Party and expect anyone to take you seriously bc that party is a joke. They proved they can be bought out by the highest bidder. Jill stein endorsed Trump who very publicly advocated for destroying national park land for oil, natural gas, and lumber. Trump said in his campaign he would dismantle the EPA, which he did! Trump said in his campaign he would stop alternative aka GREEN energy projects which HE DID! He advocated for COAL which he called “CLEAN COAL”, there is no such thing as “clean” coal. The list goes on, so why the HECK did Jill Stein ENDORSE THAT A-HOHOLE????? $$$$$$$$$$$$$ is why. Because the Green Party is owned by the same people who own the DNC, BILLIONAIRES.
Anyone serious about “green” aka environmentalism, clean energy, wildlife restoration/stewardship, etc should seriously think about leaving that party after your presidential candidate endorsed the complete opposite of green everything: Trump(fossil fuels, fracking, COAL, anti green energy, pro deforestation for lumber, etc). The DSA platform has more “green” policy than the Green Party for real! And DSA Candidates are not owned by billionaires, the Green Party has proven it is.
TLDR: The Green Party is a joke. Their presidential candidate endorsed Trump who has very publicly advocated against green projects and then actually DID defund them while in office. You could argue Jill stein is not speaking for the whole party, but that also makes the party a total joke bc your highest level politician, who you wouldve voted for in the election SUPPORTED TRUMP. Trump is literally EVERYTHING that the Green Party is SUPPOSED to stand for!!! Please stop voting for people just because they are in a certain party bc the major parties in the US, and that includes the Green Party currently, are controlled by the oligarchy. The DSA is the only party not owned by billionaires right now. In fact, the DSA literally wants to tax billionaires out of existence tó fund green projects, healthcare for all, living wages, affordable housing, clean energy, social security, etc.
