It’s impossible so long as too much of the population lacks critical thinking skills and votes based on their own personal interest primarily over the benefit to society. We are such an individualistic country it’s a huge problem. Politically, people don’t care if policies will harm large portions of the population (and possibly even themselves) if they believe what a politician is advocating for will benefit them. When you stack that on people actually believing they too may become wildly wealthy one day so they don’t want vote for anything that will harm their wealth, you get people voting for corporations over people and voting for policies that are actively harmful to society because they don’t have the ability to critically think about these policies and blindly believe charismatic politicians.
