I hope this kind of thing illustrates the absurdity of democracy in general. For a company to have influence, it needs to accumulate money, which means it needs to make customers happy or convince investors that it can do so.
For a voter to have influence, they have to survive for eighteen years and then find their way to a polling place.
Without the ability to have a robust, open political debate voting is meaningless as no voter would have context for their vote (unless they happened to personally know both candidates).
