How do you strengthen democracy against capital if capital accumulation directly results in political power under capitalism? You can't strengthen democracy against capital interests without weakening capitalism. Regulations literally weaken capitalism. Money is power. Democracy aims to distribute power to the people. Capitalism results in the accumulation of money by a few individuals.
If you're arguing we should balance this by reducing the power differential present in money, I'm all for that. But that means providing housing, medical care, food and a dignified quality of life to everyone and democratizing work places so money accumulation becomes largely a status symbol and not an alternative pathway to political power.
