Yep. Because your vote is not based on how much capital you have, but assigned (more or less) equally across the population.
I did the math. The average US-ian’s vote counts as much as Elon Musk’s (if they live in the same state). On average their “wallet vote” counts 0.00002% as much as Musk’s. Even before he bought the presidency, by the way, just as a matter of purchasing power.
Where do you think you have more of an effect?
Again, voting with your wallet has exactly zero value. Your money is a rounding error compared to your vote and your direct political action.
