Okay you can make a claim an oligarchy has been developed/transformed under capitalism and more specifically capitalism with representative democracy. The electoral college, representatives, and the lack of faith of our politicians or checks to make sure the politicians stay faithful to what they said and promised.
I still argue that capitalism ultimately leads to an oligarchy. Naturally the wealthiest maintain the wealth, and by extension control the political influence and vote only in their own interests. What we need is a democracy that cannot be influenced or corrupted by corporations. A democracy where everyone's vote is considered equal, no matter how much money they make, which state they live in. That is just the beginning of course. I still believe in democracy, just not what the US has corrupted and sold as "democracy".
