I don’t disagree with you. I think the ideal democracy would have sufficient constraints on capitalism to ensure this doesn’t happen. Perhaps in addition to the above, a constitutional amendment to get money out of politics and a non-partisan watchdog group with teeth to hammer down any attempts to circumvent.
The problem with keeping capitalism as the system of economics in any form is that it will always degrade back to fascism since the system will inherently have people with power over other people.
