that certainly is a problem; but the biggest problem is the oniony and entrenched layers of propaganda that each american must put a lot of never-ending effort into overcoming; it's the entire reason why there are so few american progressives in power to prevent political parties from catering to the oligarchies.

That catch-22 works both ways. Once there are more progressives in power, the effect will begin to reverse. I'm old enough to see it already happening. It's just a slow shift.
