I would argue this is the inevitable result of all political entities. They get captured by the richest parts of the system they're supposed to rule over. This happens to left and right leaning organizations, the only difference is what kinds of undesirable policies result. This is why a political system that lets parties be born and die naturally is preferable to the US two-party system. We're stuck with a choice between two vampires.

> political entities [...] get captured by the richest parts of the system they're supposed to rule over. This is expressed well. To be complete, we could say, Political parties in a country are subverted at all levels by robust economic interests, and subverted at the federal level by robust regional economic interests, which in turn subverts the national interest.
