Whatever happened to the democratic principal of one voice for all?

So, $10,000 dollars to have a chat with the Federal Treasurer. $2,000 a plate to talk with members of our State Government. Democracy at work? What about the people who really need the Government to work for them? Here’s the other one that irks me. If I get charged for almost ANY illegal act and I’m a millionaire I can hire the best and likely get off. Maybe even get off scot free. The Law at work? What ever happened to the concepts of guilt or innocence? Public health problems, education problems, infrastructure problems, recidivist criminals and laughable sentencing. I thought the Government was supposed to look after the electorate and the Courts were meant to manage the law. It looks to me like money is doing all the talking. Equality at work? Whatever happened to the democratic principal of one voice for all?
