In a democracy, do you think it's ok that one person has an incredible amount more influence over society compared to others, not because of their ideas but because they can give more to politicians?
- mrtksn 5y agoI think it’s OK as long as they don’t attempt to damage the democratic process. I don’t think it’s inherently good or bad to have people with large monetary power. What it counts is what they do with it. Money is just one kind of a power. Other people can have great charisma, fame, information, access or any other kind of a power that is disproportionately stronger and influential than the average person.
