It's not a very good point. You do have a say: vote.

Though it can be reasonably argued that voting doesn't work because of all the corruption, in which case all I can say is we need to stop the two party tyranny by ending FPTP voting and promote/enact ideas that reduce the influence that money can have on politics.
