    Again, My question to you is if not democracy, then what? Or do you actually want democracy? Please propose your alternative to democracy, given your claim about its purpose in “keeping capitalists in power”.

      Or do you actually want democracy?

      I want good policy.

      If my democracy is producing bad candidates and bad policies, what purpose does it serve?

      your alternative to democracy, given your claim about its purpose in “keeping capitalists in power”.

      Capitalism is serviced by the illusion of choice in a functional monopoly. The solution is to break up the monopoly.

      But that’s a Herculean task.
