#american oligarchy
If you’re going to talk about “Russian oligarchs” (which you should, because public life in Russia is dominated by corrupt billionaires), then you need to also normalize use of the term “American oligarchs”, since the USA has a higher Gini coefficient than Russia does.
Going to bring this back since apparently the infamous American oligarch Michael Bloomberg is pitching a hissy fit about people pointing out that he’s an oligarch.
the CIA axed op’s link, but the gini coefficient is a commonly used economic measurement like GDP, except for economic inequality.
