They don't set the rules though. And besides how exactly does the system benefit them? Are you talking about the political system or capitalism in general?
You've obviously never heard of Tony Blair ... or £40 million Tony Blair .. start a few wars and get a nice line in income as a Middle East peace envoy .. reward from Haliburton and co. And John Major ended up as a director of a few City firms and now lives in the US as a tax exile worth millions. And Brown hasn't done too badly .... Brand is spot on when it comes to the political classes. Just look at Harriet Harman ...

of course they set the rules, and I'm saying the political system is organised in such a way so as to benefit their form of crony capitalism. That is why I posted that link to the four horsemen film, it's has contributions from some very highly recognised economists and commentators. I am a free marketeer, the system we have now is more a form of socialism than it is free market capitalism. Honestly, watch that film, it answers better than I could.
Really, this is all something I have said before. Believe it or not (and maybe in contravention of the available evidence) I dislike saying the same thing over and over.

I think (and this is just my early morning thoughts) is that the only thing most politicians are good at nowadays is getting elected. That's fine when you're a back bencher or in opposition, but not much cop when you get into government. So in order to run an actual country, they need experts. In the good old days, that used to be the civil service. Now, for various reasons, it is run by industry "experts". So the economy (for example) is run by people who tend to work for banks and other financial organisations. And they run it in a manner which best suits the banks.
I dunno what the answer is, as you say it's a pretty bad system we currently have.

well, I'd say things are much better in France now than they were before the revolution. However, don't let that stop your amusingly childish attempts at point scoring. I do enjoy it when you make yourself look a cunt.
And for the historically retarded (that's you mags), things were really shitty before the revolution, but only for the poor.
