We have to get to a point and accept that democracy cannot work for us. Allowing poor people who lack information to vote in a system where politicians are rich and informed is a disaster. We need to find an alternative to democracy. Voting will not solve our problem.
Poverty can only be eradicated by government initiative and that government is voted for by poor voters who lack information. The government on the other hand struggles to keep people poor and without information so that they can be governed and stolen easily.
Breaking away from this cycle will require thinking outside our democratic systems and processes.
