| Now ask yourself, what is more important? Democracy itself, or the rule of law? |

Democracy. It is more important that all the citizens get to decide how they want to be ruled, than only a select percentage who make the decisions for all of the citizens.

| ...So It's ok for 51% of the population to vote away the other 49% |

| That is not lobbying. Lobbying is when the ~5% makes decisions for the ~95% by saying that "if you don't do this we will not give you financial support." |

| A summary of lobbying: "We have money, therefore we are allowed to decide laws which are going to be made. You do not, so you do not get to decide." |

No, it's called "OP is biased".
Get over it, it's a capitalist system.
Democracy is mob rule, and mob rule is senseless. |

No, I hate Sinii for being Sinii.
Is that such an alien concept to you?
And no, I'm quite fine. |

It's better for companies to decide how we are ruled rather than the "mobs" deciding who rules them, is it? Because I'd rather not to be forced to adhere to a law which some fat cats decided to lobby for.
It's corruption. It's not capitalism. Even capitalism has its limits. |
