One can believe that the combination of democracy and capitalism is the best thing humanity could come up with, and realize it still sucks.
Humans are tribal above all else. We evolved to cooperate on small bands hunting animals in some African savannah, not to cooperate in large scale as the world we create requires. Any government system we come up with will become dysfunctional because we are unfit for the world we created.
My point still stands. The ruling class is as powerful as they always were, and operate on rules designed by them, so that they can better oppress the lower classes. And I don't advocate that a different system would be any different. There will always be a ruling class.
