I am under the very strong impression that "democracy" is what fixes such things, I've seen many charts and discussions asserting that claim.
Personally, I consider democracy to be mostly an obvious illusion/trick, so those who have fallen for it are kind of getting what they deserve for not listening to (if not outright mocking) warnings.

That is a vacuous claim without any alternative so support it. I too am not too satisfied with the options I had last elections where I lived, but that is the best we have right now.
