Well the other problem with capitalism is that when the wealth inevitably funnels to a few, those few can then pay scraps to politicians to keep getting richer. If you don't co-operate, well they'll just pay the other party instead. Good luck winning when guess what, they also own the news networks. They own the social media. If you think it can be magically solved by joining a party and doing your job properly then you really don't grasp the reality of the whole situation.
You've got a point, but with that attitude nothing will get anywhere... At least if you did in there's a chance for a better outcome where you get a chance to influence things
