Yes, it's just the same. Rich people once again have a disproportionally high influence in people's opinions. It's just different rich people now.

Criticizing the system on this basis won't accomplish anything. Even if you win and get rid of it, we're all just going to once again end up under the influence of rich people in whatever new system replaces it. Search for the root cause.
