If you think political takeover is so easy, then certainly the entire structure of the republic should be blamed. Why do we blame corporate lobbying and not the electoral college or bicameral legislature? At the minimum, it seems much more important to fix the latter than the former.

I was responding to someone who failed to provide sufficient evidence. You seem to be making an unrelated point. Perhaps start your own top level response?
