- Eddy_Viscosity2 5y agoThis is of course true. Democracies are not 'the same' as autocracies, but they have features that are similar, like wealthy people having outsized influence over policy and law creation compared with regular citizens. Democracies, in some cases at least, try to limit this to some extent But I've never heard of a society where warehouse workers have the same political power as CEOs, despite being greater in number.
