>>To remove the oliarchy is to remove the government.

Yes, but they aren't overthrowing the principle of centralized government which is what you seemed to assert: they're revolting against tyranny of the oligarchs and then again against another set of oligarchs who think the gap was created for them. But people still prefer to have "somebody" in charge and on the rare occasion that a community goes for anarchy, it doesn't last long.

>>I agree that we have oligarchs in the US, namely professional politicians, regulators, the bureaucracy, after all by definition they are the persons or class so ruling.

LOL. For your viewing pleasure: http://www.vanityfair.com/society/features/2011/05/top-one-percent-201105
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
