"...flawed as it is", and it certainly is flawed - but it's still "one person one vote".

They can, and do, steal the votes, especially of poor people, as witness the Florida farce, and in effect it's possible to dazzle people into voting for you by throwing enough money around; and it's possible to use your power and influence to interfere with the counting on occasion, as in the Florida farce, once again; but situations where you actually get to vote more times than other people can, just because you are rich, are not that common these days.

Theoretically the democratic system is supposed to mean everyone is equal. The market as a system of government does not even see this as possible or desirable, it's all about money as the way to buy influence and power, at all levels.

It's plutocracy naked and unashamed. Whether that is better or worse than the system under which what is really is plutocracy disguises iitself as democracy is an interesting question.

"Hypocrisy is the homage paid by vice to virtue" (Rochefoucauld, though people always seem to think it was Oscar Wilde coined that).
