When Politics and Capitalism become entangled, Democracy is endangered.

When Politics and Capitalism become entangled, Democracy is endangered. Capitalism is about making Profits and about making Business Decisions. Business decisions are not 'Democratic' in nature, nor are they considered a 'Governing Process'. Business is Business. Its about 'Profits'. Politics is about 'Real Individuals' being 'elected' to Political Offices that require a 'Representation Of The People' that elected them. The 'Representative' must be a 'Real Individual', not a 'Legal Fiction' that exists as a 'Person' only in 'Contemplation of Law'. In other words a Political Entity cannot be 'Represented' by a 'Business Corporation', because its a Legal Fiction. Of course, some 'Political Offices' also make 'Economic Decisions', but, those decisions refer to a 'stable Economy' within the Social, which every Nation needs. Economies do not need 'Governing', they need 'Autocratic Principles' to function. In Politics, an elected Official must use 'Governing Principles' to Govern, not 'Business Principles', 'designed' to make a Profit. A Government cannot be 'Motored' by Business Principles; Government requires 'Political Principles' of 'Freedom and Equality'. That's why a CEO, 'untrained' in Political Principles, cannot 'Govern' a Political Entity. Government by Business Principles will 'deconstruct' the Political Entity; it will deconstruct the Democratic Process. Instead of Ideological Political arguments on how 'best to Govern', you have 'childish arguments' about 'who's the Boss; I do it my way; if we lose the elections there will be 'rioting' in the streets; 'if we 'lose', 'everyone will be poorer', etc.. The 'End Result' will be a Nation that 'deconstructs Democracy at the Bottom' where Real Democracy should be 'thriving'. Democracy 'deconstructed' by 'Autocratic Business Principles' at the Top. CEO'S can 'run' Business Corporations, but they cannot 'Govern' a 'Political Entity'. Now, please understand, there probably are 'Business People' who can be 'efficient Politicians', but that should 'reflect' and be made 'manifest' in the 'Political Campaign' leading to 'Election'. Failing that, a CEO cannot 'Govern' a Democratic Nation. Where are the Real Politicians?
