My pet theory is that the two parties are a competition between different factions of the wealthy, with finance capital controlling the Democrats and industrial capital controlling the Republicans. That’s why it seems like Democrats want everyone to be white collar workers and Republicans want everyone to be blue collar workers.
It’s not an accident.
The Uber wealthy discovered they can donate to both parties to get the same economic policy, and that the two would differentiate on social issues.
Regardless of which party wins, the rich never lose.
