I just wish we could just rename the two parties for what they really are... Capitalist and Socialist. that is what they have always been at their core.
The two-party system died with Ronald Reagan. It has been revived in the last year and a half.
” just wish we could just rename the two parties for what they really are... Capitalist and Socialist. that is what they have always been at their core.”
Which one is the capitalist party? Both parties seem very comfortable with the welfare state, government control of healthcare, Social Security, industries dominated by oligopolies allied with the state, and escalating public debt. While the current president claims to be a capitalist, didn’t he call for paid family leave in the recent state of the union address? Didn’t the capitalist party recently pass a tax bill that failed to simplify the tax code, instead retaining many corporate loopholes and special provisions?
