In fact, government connecting power of the powerful to responsibilities to the public appears to have produced multifaceted paths of improvement for the preponderance of US Citizens. Why would the public ever agree to drift back to the bad old days of the "Gilded Age"? I thought my high school history book was telling me that we had outgrown all that.

Too bad $800B+ go directly into by far the world's largest military, supposedly in defence of all this.
