I get that the US system was supposed to do all that in theory, but in practice it has been structured to prevent citizens from having any control over anything. It's a form of tyranny masquerading as democracy. Without major reform, we are stuck with whatever politicians these 2 parties put before us and our only choice is the lesser of 2 evils. These parties have similar interests to continue the current, flawed, system and so we are powerless to enact any change.

"Business in the U.S. is almost not susceptible to political shit. "

That's because capitalists control politics. Their profits are more important than social wellbeing.
