And after a 4 post moderated interlude...
We have a historical hatred of communism. It was a war both of cultures and of military posturing. We liked freedom, they didn't, we had religion, they made everyone take up atheism, etc.
Is the united states becoming a communist dictatorship? What you're describing is more of an oligarchy. Historically, even democracies have had ruling elites. The idea here is that they are constrained to some extent by laws, and that their membership is to some extent open. It might take more than a generation for someone to get there, but the possibility is open.
