    When spending money determines who wins or loses an election or political career … why keep referring to it as a democracy.

    A political system that runs on money is known as a plutocracy and a system that runs on the power of a few wealthy people is known as an oligarchy.

    Whatever this system is now … it definitely does not run on the will of the people … which is what democracy is.
