    Representative “democracy” alienates the common man from the political process while maintaining a semblance of democracy. For this reason it is the ideal political form for capitalism, an economic system which alienates power from the masses and concentrates it in the hands of a few.

    Class interests are the primary axis on which all political activity turns. Getting the working class to vote does not help them, it helps those in power.
