Kleptocracy

About halfway through this clip the guy makes the point that going after the oligarchs won't deter Putin, or make him change policies, because they've been subordinated to the regime in Moscow, and they just don't have the power they once had.

But It's not just the influence on Putin and Russian politics that matters. There's way too much dark money being poured into electoral processes everywhere. These rich boogers are buying up Coin-Operated Politicians all over this planet. And that needs to be dealt with if we don't want to live under the thumb of a global plutocracy.
