Is there a danger of the US becoming an Oligarchy?

"What is an oligarchy?

The general definition of an oligarchy is a form of government involving the rule of a few persons or families. According to National Geographic, Greek philosopher Aristotle used the term in contrast to aristocracy (the elite upper class) to describe the rule of a few for “corrupt and unjust purposes.”

One more reason for TERM LIMITS! There is so much corruption in Washington due to long term politicians and bureacrats!

@fanuc2013 Trouble is, term limits only apply to elected officials, not the shady billionaires behind them.
