Democracy just as a race can be fixed. Tote’s a comulative pool not static odds. A totem pôle is for Indian hyroglyphics. But the tote bag is for lugging grocery. So, no matter how one votes, even if you spoil it or don’t it matters not a toss. There are no photo finishes no each way punts, handicaps or disqualifications, it’s the sport of Kings for politicians and plebs.
Ps.
It is naieve to think the aristocrates are gone. Money and power never changes hands, tot that up!
