"La democracia en cualquier sentido significativo del término no significa que los ciudadanos tengan el derecho de elegir entre dos personas ricas que representan básicamente los mismos intereses."
— Noam Chomsky
Simplified Meaning:
In a real democracy, people should have the power to choose leaders who truly represent their different needs and opinions. If voters can only pick between two wealthy individuals with similar views, then their choices are limited. This isn't real freedom because the issues that matter to everyday people might not be addressed. For example, imagine if a community could only pick between two managers for their neighborhood association, and both candidates cared mostly about their own businesses rather than what the community needed. To make democracy work better, people should have candidates who come from different backgrounds and who care about different things. This way, everyone feels that their voice matters and that the leaders will work for their benefit.
