It is the inevitable product of electoral democracy. You see, the power structure is reversed. The people directly vote in the government. But the people know what the media tell them, so the media vote in the government. But the media tell them what owners of the media allow the media to tell, so the owners of the media actually vote in the government. So the State is completely subjugated to the Corporate Interest, regardless what the function of state was in the beginning, to help people or the powerful, over 100 years it becomes to help the powerful. That is why electoral democracy has to go!
