Highest prison population w/ privately owned prisons, besides the elite class of your country controls what happens in your country (media included), you have no say in it.

The dollar rules in the US. That is 100% true and is definitely not a good system. However, that doesn’t make it a dictatorship unless you consider money to be their dictator.
