Votes matter a lot less in an FPTP voting system, and the point about media division and ownership plays into the fact that people can easily be mislead into voting against their own interests. Not sure if you are aware of the little old B word which was proven to have been based on a campaign of lies. As for your remark about robots replacing shelf stackers and cleaners. I’ll leave that as the ill-informed and provocative comment it is. Regarding government funding, governments spend public tax payer money, yes. Political parties receive their funding from private donors who ultimately end up expecting some kind of payback for their donation/bribe. Which ultimately comes out of the tax payer’s pocket. This creates a cyclic system which is built to extract wealth from the bottom and middle classes in order to feed it back to the society’s richest people.
