An analysis of the state of Western politics was that  formerly, the king snatched power from the Catholic Church in the United Kingdom and set up his own church and administration . Later  Cromwell snatched power from the king and  gave power to politically influenced persons, mostly landowners . In modern times,  the business classes are controlling and influencing the weak and unqualified political classes . In the USA, having  direct  rule , Donald Trump leads the way . The business class wants money at any cost , employees, or the environment or decent behaviour will not stand in their way . Wars , deaths, and exploitation are caused by greed and ignorance of others’ rights . Encroachments are the very nature of the ruthless businessmen.  If they are artificially put in charge of a country, they will put the country in debt by lowering taxes , to increase their own profits. Currently, the USA is in 38 trillion debt .
These business persons are ruthless and have no real care except their wallet.
Thus , the Vedic way is the intelligentsia who are philosophically minded and compassionate to all , hold the life long king  to account making him responsible to carry out duties within  his political administration that are just and fair . Such leaders are compelled to instigate governmental and compliance systems so that  businessmen operate with real  free market economics , not fixed global monopolies. The business communities must protect its workforce and provide them with sufficient resources to live , including a home to live in , and must respect others’ cultures and countries.
Democracies are crumbling and have been infiltrated by the conglomorates who fund politics and fund mainstream media, causing the unthinking layman to remain unthinking….thus fools are voting in fools
