The US is far too disorganized

The ruling class is highly organized and knows what it is doing. The illusion of disorganization keeps you complacent by encouraging you to fight for one side of the rulers instead of fighting against all of them.

I don’t disagree with you, but I’d argue the ruling class has no allegiance to country. Which is why you see some many of them throw their countrymen under a bus to pull a profit. They’re in their own little world, and we are all their slaves.

I’d say their greatest skill is misdirection.
