John Whitehead at the Rutherford Institute (in Charlottesville Virginia, also our home) explains that we have a 2 tiered system of governance. There are laws for the aristocracy and there are laws for the rest of us. Whitehead describes it as a system of “neo-feudalism.”

In a crony capitalist system, government rewards special interests allied with it and punishes or threatens to punish special interests not allied with it.
