I strongly believe Trump and Sanders signal to the rabid balkanization of media (aided by proliferation of web, mobile, and social media), rather than an oligarchy on the brink of collapse. It has never been easier to read clickbait radical news that provides ample confirmation bias. Globally speaking, Americans have by far one of the best quality of lives anywhere in the world. But hearing Sanders - Trump, you would think we live in some war ravaged developing country.
