- takeda 11y agoIsn't that how democracy generally ends up working?
- ndesaulniers 11y agoBeing familiar with the US form of democracy that involves lots of lobbyist money, it would seem.
- philovivero 11y agoWhy is this comment down-voted? In democracy, you can spend money on a PR campaign to sway many millions of votes your way. And as another commenter noted, once a candidate is in place, lobbyists can pay to get proper legislation passed. Finally, voting is rigged in any place where voting computers are installed, which appears to be a lot of places. Again, for the right money, you can completely change the course of an election.
