> Democracy is supposed to be more involved than* showing up every 4-5 years
Which biases democracy into "Rule by the people who can show up more often than once every 4-5 years and keep up professionally with developments in the meantime", which would be wealthy private interests.
Agree with throw2016's assessment, this issue and crony capitalism/rule by the wealthy are inextricably linked.
> whereas most people can barely be counted on to show up
Because most people on the wealth curve get edged out on the means. Inextricably linked.
