I think they’re in bed the same amount, I think they run in the same circles, and have the same owners/donators/lobbyistz.
You’re not paying attention, it’s now almost a century of big business running the show. Things are not materially improving for citizens. The only winners regardless of which party is in power is business.

Trump’s entire economic policy was designed by the Supply Side Economics brain trust.
Thanks a lot to presidents like Reagan and Trump, and the GOP hijacking the working class right with grievance politics.
