A: Those who own large shares of multinational corporations and banks rule by proxy vote through the corporations and politicians they purchased a controlling interest in. Money is the permanent establishment, and oligarchs and hereditary heads of state have been busy investors.
Over the course of decades, practically everything of real value in the west has been acquired by those with the world's deepest pockets, from landmark real estate to controlling interests in major banks in New York and London.
The foreign investment portfolios include the GOP and most of the Democratic Party, whether or not you and they know it or are willing to acknowledge it. Campaign finance laws do not distinguish between "U.S." corporations that are foreign or domestic-owned, and after Citizen's United the US Supreme Court tells us there are no longer any effective limits to political spending by corporations, domestic or foreign-owned. The presumed next President knows that, as did the mentor who brought her and her husband into al-Yamamah. Google the last word, it's Arabic for the name of the slush fund set up to buy US and British politicians with oil sales to the west and reverse arms sales to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states.

And, oh yes, the new masters of the universe are business partners with the Israeli right-wing. They also exercise their share of influence. Working together, they stand a fairly good chance of succeeding in their separate plans to put us out of the way.

"To boil it all down to the essence: The fundamentalist-Sunni royal family of the Sauds have bought the highest levels of the U.S. government in order to control U.S. foreign policies, especially the ongoing wars to take down the governments of Iraq, Libya, Syria, and ultimately (they hope) of Russia itself, which latter nation has allied itself instead with Shiia countries. The controlling entities behind American foreign policies since at least the late 1970s have been the Saud family and the Sauds’ subordinate Arabic aristocracies in Qatar (the al-Thanis), Kuwait (the al-Sabahs), Turkey (the Tuktik Erdoğans, a new royalty), and UAE (its six royal families: the main one, the al-Nahyans in Abu Dhabi; the other five: the al-Maktoums in Dubai, al-Qasimis in Sharjah, al-Nuaimis in Ajman, al-Mualla Ums in Quwain, and al-Sharqis in Fujairah). Other Saudi-dominated nations — though they’re not oil-rich (more like Turkey in this regard) — are Pakistan and Afghanistan."
