Elites? Hell. This is America and the only"elites" are the ones who have become ones in their own minds.
I do disagree with most of what all politicians believe. And it's not just this country. I have asked peoplee from all over the world what they think of their poloticians and they all say they are crooks.

Anyone who does not believe there are elites setting the political agenda, and controlling the shape of politics, is ignorant of history, economics, sociology, political science, and common sense. Our current policies are most definitely dictated to satisfy the interests of our ruling elites. That's why it doesn't matter what "the people" think. If anything, it is "the people" who are mythical, not the elites.
