Every organization is run for the convenience of its controllers. The idea
behind democracy is to prevent the convenience of the government and
convenience of the population from becoming too misaligned. The idea behind
capitalism is to prevent the convenience of business and the convenience of
consumers from becoming too misaligned.
The idea behind the special interest pressure group is to cause these
misalignments.
