How is it that billion dollar tech companies haven't infiltrated the EU leadership yet?

The "EU leadership" changes every few years, through something called democracy.

It doesn't really change, the same people are voted over and over and over like in most democracies. To some extend the EU is even antidemocratic, since people don't really have a saying in who's the president.
