US is an oligarchy

The best way to prove whether the United States (US) is a democracy or an oligarchy is via this year’s political elections for president. Both the Democratic and the Republican Party candidates are supporting the genocide against the indigenous people of Palestine against international law and the majority of US citizens.
In a real democracy, neither the Democratic nor the Republican presidential candidates should win the elections. But, if the US is in fact an oligarchy, one of them should win.
Oligarchs don’t care about democracy. They only care about imperialism. US Major General Smedley Butler warned the world in the 1930’s that his country uses war as a racket to make the rich richer.
That is why 9 of the 10 richest men in the world are US citizens, while 38 million Americans live in poverty, and 60% live from paycheck to paycheck.
That is also why only 33% of Americans are satisfied with our government, while 90% of Chinese are satisfied with theirs. That means that the People’s Republic of China is the real champion of democracy!
The US has prevented Puerto Rico from having her own democracy by consistently refusing to comply with 42 United Nations’ resolutions demanding that it immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1w/k1wb1xdn6i https://webtv.un.org/en/asset/k15/k154ku9q8x
During 126 years of US colonialism in Puerto Rico, two third of Puerto Ricans live away from our national territory, and half of those remaining live in poverty. That’s bad for democracy, and great for US imperialism.
US democracy is only for oligarchs!
