Lots of people might also think that it's perfectly normal in a democracy that you can buy your personal congressman, a supreme court judge or even a presidential candidate. This has a long tradition especially in the US and is probably kinda normalized by now for some strange reason. I think it can't be wrong to emphasize that this is neither normal nor desirable in a functioning democracy.
