We are living in Ayn Rand's Utopia

We have an executive branch run entirely by self-aggrandizing, career groping, egomaniacs dedicated to advancing their own interests above everybody else's.

This is why they loot the public treasury at every turn. This is why they sell out to large corporate interests in hopes of getting a plum consulting or board of directors gig when they leave government service. This is why the White House leaks like a sieve whenever these weasels think they can get a leg up on their colleagues.

Government by self service. It's bursocracy, government by filling the purse. Kakistocracy, government by the worst.

Got his chaos, with black people being killed, protestors and media being beaten, attacked by dogs and eyes shot out with rubber bullets. And the richest are looting the gubmint to boot. Oh what a glorious time for the libertarian idiots.
