There are many good things said here Zack, my response was delayed given that I wanted to see how things would play out after the attempted assassination made on Donald Trump this past week.
Ultimately you are correct when you say that the power does truly reside in the hands of the people, and throughout history this has been demonstrated. That many civilizations always have had an oligarchy in some shape, form or fashion in place. Their success has always been in the ability to control the narrative, strategically manipulate the people to create divisions using an old strategy of divide and conquer, thus rule. The problems always arise at the end usually when the use of finances are over extended much like the people in their own personal finances that pay the debt on their Visa with their American Express and the American Express is due at the end of the month. This is usually accompanied with extreme polarization along political lines, then hyperinflation, possibly sparking civil wars.
The ideas that you espoused for investments are very good ones and certainly are worthwhile researching. As for who rules the world it is an interesting topic and one worthwhile for lively discussion and perhaps investment advice, there are even A.I apps that will follow the political classes investments and will move funds as you direct them in mirror like fashion to theirs. This is not a terrible thought process either as in U.S. law elected officials have immunity from insider trading laws for the committees and boards upon which they sit.
