When you write comments like the above it reads like you are unfamiliar with history, with original sources.
My view: all power distribution systems are more or less the same- the people who care about power fight for it, where the in-groups of the winners do quite well, and the people who don't don't and tend to suffer. This is true in the US, in Russia now, in China, you name it.
There are many metrics by which average working people in the US suffer, the US jails dominated by black men who have done nothing wrong are abhorrent and shameful, etc etc etc, but like with many things this is an exercise in least bad.
Many, many systems- including ANY explicitly centralized power structure- are going in the end to be more bad.
The US is remarkably decentralized, and that is its blessing and saving grace, the suffering of those who are not in aside.
In the end, central planning does not survive any good intentions of its originators. Power consolidation becomes the ends of any next generation. And then you think it is bad being alive as an out group in the US? At least they are alive.
