How is regulatory capture a problem of democracy? Surely you only need a regulator and a party to capture them?

For example, what's stopping a company in China lobbying a minister for regulations that harm their competitors? The Minister may not have been elected through democratic means, but regulatory capture can still occur.

I didn't mean exclusively. I meant it's an existing problem, the distance between the regulator and the authority, which in democracy is quite distant, but in other form of government can also be quite distant.

I think we're getting closer but I still don't understand. What do you mean by "the authority"?
