Yeah the post misses the mark by a wide margin. Democracy affects government, which in turn affects businesses. Democracy does not mean you directly get to pick and choose all things in life.

Clarification: yes, workplace democracy exists. Yes, it would be great to see more of it! Often when people speak of democracy, though, they are talking about a democratic system of government, which does not automatically mean businesses, workplaces, schools, clubs, recreational facilities are also democratic in nature...

So, comic is a little off base still
