32. what?
So you honestly think that this:
I have come to realize that we in America do not live in a democracy, but a rule by a small corrupt majority which happens to be filthy rich - the same people who brought us...


Is supposed to refer to either:
Just barely over 1/2 of Americans
OR
Just over 1/2 of very rich Americans... which would make the "which happens to be filthy rich" part a bit absurd.

I think this was a typo and he meant 'rule by a small corrupt minority'. You could be correct though because judging from the rest of his article he isn't exactly a great writer.
